Several factors contribute to the occurrence of inconsistent protocols:
Resource constraints: Limited funding and resources may lead to shortcuts or deviations from standard procedures. Lack of training: Insufficient training of personnel can result in misunderstandings and incorrect application of protocols. Variability in guidelines: Different organizations and countries may have their own guidelines, leading to discrepancies. Rapidly evolving situations: During outbreaks, protocols may change quickly, causing confusion and inconsistency.
