I searched Google about this term, but the definitions that I found was related to the medical world, and nothing related to IT. I think that is some kind of procedure of documenting something maybe? Note that I heard this word for the first time in the SOC (Security Operations Center) that I am currently working.

We just got reports that 4000 of our systems are infected with ransomeware.
3000 are end users, 800 are non-critical servers, 200 are critical servers.
Triage is looking at this mess and deciding which order to start restoring systems in. We can't tackle them all at once, so we have to look at some and say 'Sorry, little Inspiron that couldn't, you get to sit there and be useless for a while.'
It comes from the medical world, as you've stated. It's the same reasoning as an ER doctor looking at two patients and deciding to work on the one that they're more certain they can save. You let one go, as hard as it may be, so that the other might live. If you'd worked on the worse injured person, it's possible they both would have died.
The difference in the security world is that often it's dollars lost due to users being unable to work, rather than literal life and death. You work on the systems that you are most likely to be able to restore, and that will return the largest amount of productivity to the environment. You leave the individual laptops that only affect a single user to the side, for now.
wow, thanks a lot. So, in brief, it is like prioritize which systems you want to restore, because there are many of them, and you cant work with all of them at the same time, right?

Pretty much. It's just deciding what systems make the most sense to fix first, because you have limited resources.
