Decision tree of the FALLS protocol. Decision tree of the FALLS protocol. The decision tree presented is here simplified in order to understand first the purpose of the FALLS protocol, to rapidly diagnose the cause of an unexplained circulatory failure. A full understanding of the FALLS protocol is needed to use this tool in clinical practice [5, 10]. Reproduced and modified from [11] with permission from the publisher.
