You are field triaging clients after an industrial accident. Which client condition would you triage with a red tag?

Rationale: A. While these injuries are serious, they are not immediately life-threatening. The patient can generally wait for treatment without immediate risk of death, so they would likely be triaged yellow (delayed). B. A closed clavicle fracture with mild neurologic symptoms is significant but not immediately life-threatening, so the patient would also be triaged yellow or green depending on mobility and stability. C. A forehead contusion and epistaxis are usually minor injuries unless accompanied by altered consciousness or other complications. These patients are generally triaged green (minor). D. Rib fractures combined with respiratory compromise such as shortness of breath indicate a potential life-threatening injury, such as flail chest or pulmonary contusion. These patients require immediate intervention to stabilize airway and breathing, making a red tag (immediate priority) appropriate.
