like other nations&#44; has been overwhelmed by the COVID-19 pandemic&#46; It has placed a massive burden on the health system&#44; leading to a mismatch between the population&#8217;s needs and the availability of clinical care and advanced life support&#46; This situation has forced us to adopt common criteria for the allocation of resources so that serious inequities in care do not emerge&#46; Any criteria or protocol adopted to ration scarce resources must never be applied mechanically or automatically&#58; every human being has the right to personal consideration&#46; However&#44; this does not preclude us from trying to establish general prioritization criteria that must then be applied on an individual basis&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a></p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Triage in situations of scarcity is not extraordinary in clinical practice&#59; in fact&#44; it is common in organ transplantation and even in routine clinical care in many institutions&#46; To ensure that the ethical principles of fairness and the greatest good for the greatest number of patients are respected&#44; triage criteria should be as objective as possible&#46; These clinical criteria attempt to determine which patients have both a more favorable prognosis &#40;greater chances of survival and benefit derived from treatment&#41;

like other nations&#44; has been overwhelmed by the COVID-19 pandemic&#46; It has placed a massive burden on the health system&#44; leading to a mismatch between the population&#8217;s needs and the availability of clinical care and advanced life support&#46; This situation has forced us to adopt common criteria for the allocation of resources so that serious inequities in care do not emerge&#46; Any criteria or protocol adopted to ration scarce resources must never be applied mechanically or automatically&#58; every human being has the right to personal consideration&#46; However&#44; this does not preclude us from trying to establish general prioritization criteria that must then be applied on an individual basis&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a></p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Triage in situations of scarcity is not extraordinary in clinical practice&#59; in fact&#44; it is common in organ transplantation and even in routine clinical care in many institutions&#46; To ensure that the ethical principles of fairness and the greatest good for the greatest number of patients are respected&#44; triage criteria should be as objective as possible&#46; These clinical criteria attempt to determine which patients have both a more favorable prognosis &#40;greater chances of survival and benefit derived from treatment&#41; and a shorter a priori duration of expected ICU admission&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a></p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The issue of age often comes up when determining which criteria to consider&#46; Although older adults are a higher-risk population&#44; age cannot be the sole factor behind the adoption of a behavior&#44; since any decision must depend on the general clinical condition of the patient&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a></p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">However&#44; on the one hand&#44; if we do not take age into account&#44; we too often provide care that is expensive and ineffective&#46; On the other hand&#44; if we make age the sole criterion for making decisions&#44; we are in effect taking a giant step toward openly valuing some lives over others&#44; an approach that challenges the basic principles of medicine&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a></p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">It is true that with advanced age&#44; there is less physiological reserve and lower expectations of complete recovery&#44; but comorbidity&#44; frailty&#44; and clinical complexity better define the limits of adequate treatment than age alone&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> Furthermore&#44; decision-making must take into account patients&#8217; opinions about their expectations and choices&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In regard to properly assigning mechanical ventilation&#44; the criteria should be the same as in normal medical practice&#46; Mechanical ventilation is an intensive treatment that must be indicated according to the objectives set for the intervention and depending on the patient&#8217;s medical condition&#44; the evolution of the disease to date&#44; the treatment options&#44; and the prognosis&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> Although the chances of survival may be low&#44; treatment should continue unless deemed ineffective or at the request of a patient or their surrogate&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> Once patients have already received mechanical ventilation&#44; the decision to withdraw it is especially difficult&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a></p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">New York State guidelines reject old age as a ranking criterion because it discriminates against older people&#46; Furthermore&#44; age already indirectly influences any criteria that assess an individual&#39;s overall health &#40;given that the likelihood of having chronic medical conditions increases with age&#41; and there are many cases in which an older person might have a better clinical outlook than a younger person&#46; Only when all available clinical factors have been examined and the probability of mortality among the patient group has been determined to be equal can age be used as a deciding factor in selecting a patient for ventilator therapy&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a></p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An ethically sound framework for healthcare during public health emergencies must balance the duty of patient-centered care with the public-centered duties of promoting equality and equity for all in the distribution of risks and benefits in society&#46; It is essential to respect the dignity of each patient&#46; Medical treatment must be proportional to the patient&#39;s condition and basic factors &#40;chronic diseases&#44; risk factors&#44; and others&#41; that must be included as part of the analysis of each patient&#8217;s possibility of recovery&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a></p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The choice to set limits on access to treatment is not a discretionary decision&#44; but a necessary response to the overwhelming effects of a pandemic&#46; The difficulty lies in how to do it ethically and consistently&#44; rather than basing decisions on each individual institution&#8217;s approach or a physician&#39;s intuition in the heat of the moment&#46;</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Proposals for resource allocation in pandemics concur on four core values&#58; maximizing the benefits of scarce resources&#44; treating people equally&#44; promoting and rewarding instrumental value&#44; and prioritizing the most disadvantaged&#59; no single value is enough on its own&#46; Fair allocation requires a multivalue ethical framework that can be adapted according to the resource and context&#46; This highlights the need for fair and consistent allocation procedures which must be transparent and reflect the guidelines for prioritization that ensure that individual physicians are not faced with the terrible task of making decisions on the fly&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2&#44;10</span></a></p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Overemphasis on resource reallocation without sufficient evidence could have unintended negative consequences for vulnerable populations&#46; In the race to save lives&#44; many governments focused on increasing capacity in acute care hospitals&#44; while subacute care facilities&#44; which often house older adults and people with disabilities&#44;
