The standard operating procedure or SOP is typically a "detailed, written instructions to achieve uniformity of the performance of a specific function."[1] SOPs get applied in many industries, including clinical medicine. There the focus is always set on repeated application of unchanged processes and procedures and its documentation, hence supporting the segregation of origins, causes, and effects. Further application includes in triage, when limited resources get used according to an assessment on ranking, urgency, and staffing possibilities.[2]
