| combat application tourniquet training: The Tourniquet Manual — Principles and Practice Leslie Klenerman, 2006-04-18 Why write a book on the tourniquet? The tourniquet is used routinely in op- ating theatres throughout the world, but as far as I know there is no single book that surveys the considerable literature that has accumulated. If used sensibly, the tourniquet is a safe instrument. Most of the few complications seen with its use are preventable. However, when something untoward happens, the tour- quet suddenly becomes an interesting subject, particularly if there is the likelihood of medicolegal consequences. This book summarises the scientific background of the tourniquet and describes a safe physiological approach to preventing complications. Examples of medicolegal problems are included. Considerable progress had been made since Lister first excised a tuberculous wrist joint in a bloodless field. Many researchers have studied the effects of ischaemia and pressure on nerves and muscles. Tourniquets have entered the age of computers and are now much more sophisticated. Despite this, there is still much dogma surrounding the tourniquet in operating theatres and in textbooks. This book is aimed at orthopaedic surgeons, anaesthetists and op- ating-theatre staff. I hope that this short text will stimulate a more widespread interest in the tour- quet and improve safe practice. |

| combat application tourniquet training: USMC COMBAT LIFESAVER / TACTICAL COMBAT CASUALTY CARE TCCC TRAINER COURSE INSTRUCTOR & STUDENT CURRICULUM , BACKGROUND IN 1996, THE NAVAL SPECIAL WARFARE COMMAND DEVELOPED A NEW SET OF TACTICALLY APPROPRIATE BATTLEFIELD TRAUMA CARE GUIDELINES NAMED TCCC. THE TCCC GUIDELINES WERE ADOPTED BY THE U.S. SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMMAND (USSOCOM) AND APPROVED BY THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS (ACS) AND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL TECHNICIANS. THE COMMITTEE ON TCCC WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2001 AND WAS DIRECTED TO FURTHER DEVELOP THE TCCC STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES. THE COMMITTEE ON TCCC FUNCTIONS AS A WORKING GROUP OF THE TRAUMA AND INJURY SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE DEFENSE HEALTH BOARD (DHB), WHICH HAS A CHARTER TO PROVIDE MEDICAL RECOMMENDATIONS TO ASD (HA) AND THE SERVICE SURGEONS GENERAL. TCCC CONCEPTS WERE INCORPORATED INTO THE 8404 CORPSMAN TRAINING CURRICULUM IN 2005. THE TCCC/CLS TRAINER COURSE WAS DEVELOPED IN 2006 TO PROVIDE CORPSMEN AS TRAINERS TO TEACH AND SUSTAIN TCCC STANDARDS TO CORPSMEN AND CLS SKILLS TO SELECTED MARINES WITHIN THE OPERATING FORCES. THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TCCC ACROSS ALL SERVICES HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS ONE OF THE CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO THE HIGHEST COMBAT CASUALTY SURVIVAL RATES IN HISTORY AND IS RECOMMENDED BY ASD (HA) FOR USE WHEN TRAINING COMBAT MEDICAL PERSONNEL, REF B. TCCC INFORMATION IS PUBLISHED IN THE PREHOSPITAL TRAUMA LIFE SUPPORT MANUAL (PHTLS), MILITARY EDITION, WHICH IS UPDATED EVERY FOUR YEARS. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE (DOD) APPROVED TCCC TRAINING CURRICULA ARE UPDATED ON THE DOD WEBSITE MHS.OSD.MIL/EDUCATION AND TRAINING/TCCC.ASPX AS THE TCCC GUIDELINES CHANGE. GOAL. ELIMINATE PREVENTABLE LOSS OF LIFE ON THE BATTLEFIELD. IN ACCOMPLISHING THIS GOAL, THE MOST RECENT TCCC GUIDELINES APPROVED BY DOD ARE TO BE UTILIZED AS A MEANS OF PROVIDING STANDARDIZED TRAINING TO THE MARINE CORPS AND IMPROVING FIRST RESPONDER CARE AT THE POINT OF INJURY. HISTORY OF TCCC: a. It is important to realize that civilian trauma care in a non-tactical setting is dissimilar to trauma care in a combat environment. TCCC and CLS are an attempt to better prepare medical and non-medical personnel for the unique factors associated with combat trauma casualties. b. Historical data shows that 90% of combat wound fatalities die on the battlefield before reaching a military treatment facility. This fact illustrates the importance of first responder care at the point of injury. c. TCCC was originally a US Special Operations research project which was composed of trauma management guidelines focusing on casualty care at the point of injury. d. TCCC guidelines are currently used throughout the US Military and various allied countries. e. TCCC guidelines were first introduced in 1996 for use by Special Operations corpsmen, medics, and pararescue (PJs). f. The TCCC guidelines are currently endorsed by the American College of Surgeons, Committee on Trauma and the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians. The guidelines have been incorporated into the Prehospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS) text since the 4th edition.

| combat application tourniquet training: A National Trauma Care System National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, Board on the Health of Select Populations, Board on Health Sciences Policy, Committee on Military Trauma Care's Learning Health System and Its Translation to the Civilian Sector, 2016-10-12 Advances in trauma care have accelerated over the past decade, spurred by the significant burden of injury from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Between 2005 and 2013, the case fatality rate for United States service members injured in Afghanistan decreased by nearly 50 percent, despite an increase in the severity of injury among U.S. troops during the same period of time. But as the war in Afghanistan ends, knowledge and advances in trauma care developed by the Department of Defense (DoD) over the past decade from experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq may be lost. This would have implications for the quality of trauma care both within the DoD and in the civilian setting, where adoption of military advances in trauma care has become increasingly common and necessary to improve the response to multiple civilian casualty events. Intentional steps to codify and harvest the lessons learned within the military's trauma system are needed to ensure a ready military medical force for future combat and to prevent death from survivable injuries in both military and civilian systems. This will require partnership across military and civilian sectors and a sustained commitment from trauma system leaders at all levels to assure that the necessary knowledge and tools are not lost. A National Trauma Care System defines the components of a learning health system necessary to enable continued improvement in trauma care in both the civilian and the military sectors. This report provides recommendations to ensure that lessons learned over the past decade from the military's experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq are sustained and built upon for future combat operations and translated into the U.S. civilian system. |

| combat application tourniquet training: U.S. Army Special Warfare Medical Group SPECIAL OPERATIONS COMBAT MEDICAL SKILLS SUSTAINMENT COURSE: Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) Training For The SOF Advanced Tactical Practitioner (ATP) , Scope. a. USSOCOM’s principle function is to prepare SOF to carry out assigned missions. This responsibility is derived from US Code Title 10, Section 167. In addition to organizing, training, and equipping SOF for unique missions, medical education is fundamental to fulfilling this law. Title 10 explicit responsibilities include development of strategy, doctrine, tactics, conducting specialized courses of medical instruction for commissioned and non-commissioned officers, and monitoring the medical education and professional certification of officers and enlisted personnel. USSOCOM’s medical education and certification responsibilities are inherent responsibilities of developing strategy, doctrine and tactics. b. The Commander, United States Special Operations Command (CDRUSSOCOM) has the service- like responsibility of providing joint training and education venues that specialize in the art and science of joint Special Operations and its medical support. These efforts complete the education and training picture within the Department of Defense (DOD). While each of the Services, and the joint community, provide education and training to fill a particular niche (i.e., naval warfare, air warfare, joint warfare, etc.) the Joint Special Operations Medical Training Center (JSOMTC) within USSOCOM and the Air Force’s Pararescue (PJ) course provides training to fill the medical niche of joint SOF core task requirements. SOF medical training and certification is force-wide, designed to initiate, maintain, and/or enhance medical skills of those SOF medics and non-medics who are required to perform the unique, global, multi- discipline mission of USSOCOM. Within the parameters of this directive, as outlined by first reference (Glossary Section III), USSOCOM’s primary responsibility is the medical education and training and certification of SOF. A secondary responsibility is the training and education of select DOD, interagency, and international military personnel in the requirements, capabilities, and limitation(s) of joint special operations organizations. Fostering a mutual understanding ensures the proper application of SOF and the enhancement of joint, combined and interagency medical operations. General. In support of the Global War On Terrorism (GWOT), Special Operations medical personnel often find themselves providing care for both trauma and non-traumatic medical emergencies, beyond the Forward Edge of the Battlefield Area/Forward Line Of Troops, often in non-linear environments that may be far forward of any supporting medical infrastructure. This directive identifies the authority, mission, command relationships, functions, and responsibilities of the United States Special Operations Command as directed under Section 167, Title 10 of US Code to provide SOF medics with the required skill sets. In order to define and administer this SOF Medical skill set, USSOCOM has established a SOF Emergency Medical Services (EMS) State that is administered by the Command Surgeon. Medics who successfully complete the required academic requirements as defined within this directive will thus be known as SOF Advanced Tactical Practitioners (ATP). |

| combat application tourniquet training: USMC Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC / TC3) Guidelines , 2013-10-28 Tactical Combat Casualty Care Guidelines 28 October 2013 * All changes to the guidelines made since those published in the 2010 Seventh Edition of the PHTLS Manual are shown in bold text. The most recent changes are shown in red text. * These recommendations are intended to be guidelines only and are not a substitute for clinical judgment. Basic Management Plan for Care Under Fire 1. Return fire and take cover. 2. Direct or expect casualty to remain engaged as a combatant if appropriate. 3. Direct casualty to move to cover and apply self-aid if able. 4. Try to keep the casualty from sustaining additional wounds. 5. Casualties should be extricated from burning vehicles or buildings and moved to places of relative safety. Do what is necessary to stop the burning process. 6. Airway management is generally best deferred until the Tactical Field Care phase. 7. Stop life-threatening external hemorrhage if tactically feasible: - Direct casualty to control hemorrhage by self-aid if able. - Use a CoTCCC-recommended tourniquet for hemorrhage that is anatomically amenable to tourniquet application. - Apply the tourniquet proximal to the bleeding site, over the uniform, tighten, and move the casualty to cover. |

| combat application tourniquet training: Support to High Intensity Operations Great Britain. National Audit Office, 2009 The provision of support for troops in Iraq and Afghanistan is made more difficult because they operate in remote locations and harsh conditions. Despite the challenging operational environments, the Ministry of Defence (MOD) has successfully delivered around 300,000 personnel and 90,000 tonnes of freight to Iraq and Afghanistan over the last two years. However, it has not consistently met its targets for delivering supplies in a timely fashion. The MOD is taking measures to improve the effectiveness of its supply chain; and the amount of time a unit waits for items to be delivered has reduced by half in Afghanistan and a third in Iraq. �4.2 billion has been approved to upgrade or buy new equipment to meet urgent requirements in the two theatres. The NAO found that the availability of this equipment has generally met or exceeded targets, though there have been spares shortages with some fleets particularly when the vehicle is used for a different purpose than intended. The availability and serviceability of helicopters has exceeded MOD targets, although prioritisation of spare parts for operations has led to reduced availability in the UK. There are also shortages of equipment for Service personnel in the UK to train with, prior to deployment overseas. Accommodation, medical and welfare services to Service personnel on operations are generally satisfactory although provision at the smaller patrol bases is more basic. The helicopter borne Medical Emergency Response Teams provide quick, life-saving medical support to casualties and evacuate them speedily to hospital. |
| combat application tourniquet training: Combat Casualty Care Eric Savitsky, Borden Institute (U.S.), 2012 This book is designed to deliver combat casualty care information that will facilitate transition from a continental US or civilian practice to the combat care environment. Establishment of the Joint Theater Trauma System and the Joint Theater Trauma Registry, coupled with the efforts of the authors, has resulted in the creation of the most comprehensive, evidence-based depiction of the latest advances in combat casualty care. Lessons learned in Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) have been fortified with evidence-based recommendations to improve casualty care. The educational curriculum was designed overall to address the leading causes of preventable death and disability in OEF and OIF. Specifically, the generalist combat casualty care provider is presented requisite information for optimal cae of US combat casualties in the first 72 to 96 hours after injury. The specialist provider is afforded similiar information, supplemented by lessons learned for definitive care of host nation patients.-- |
| combat application tourniquet training: Tactical Emergency Medicine Richard B. Schwartz, John G. McManus, Raymond E.

Key topics covered include hostage survival, insertion and extraction techniques, continuum of force, medical support, planning and triage, medical evaluation in the incident zone, care in custody, medical control of incident site, decontamination, community communication, and more. Boxed definitions, case scenarios, and treatment algorithms are included. The concluding chapter presents real world scenarios to run tactical teams through and lists recommended training programs and continuing education. |
| combat application tourniquet training: The Long Walk Home Liane Faulder, 2011-02-01 The Canadian media were the first to bring Master Corporal Paul Franklin's story to the public, and it is only fitting that award-winning journalist Liane Faulder brings the full account of his return from a war zone. The Long Walk Home: Paul Franklin's Journey from Afghanistan documents the recovery of a soldier injured in a 2006 suicide bombing that left one Canadian diplomat dead, and two comrades in arms wounded. Although Franklin made a promise to his wife that he would come home alive, he needed the heroic help of soldiers on the scene and a medical team abroad to keep his word. He lost both of his legs above the knee as the result of his injuries, but returned home determined to walk again. Within four months of his injury, and against the odds and predictions of doctors, Franklin learned to walk on artificial legs. He continues to represent the courage of Canadian troops overseas as he rebuilds his life at home with his wife Audra and their young son, Simon. As a family on a journey to recovery, they are determined to stand, and walk, together. The Long Walk Home: Paul Franklin's Journey from Afghanistan is a story of loss, courage, love and hope. It inspires all of those — military and civilians alike — who wonder how they will take that next step when tough times challenge the body and the spirit. |

| combat application tourniquet training: The Evolution of Forward Surgery in the US Army Lance P. Steahly, David W. Cannon (Sr.), 2018 This volume in the Borden Institute's history series will describe forward US Army surgery from the 1700s to the present time. The book will look at advances in medicine and surgery that improved the lot of the American soldier. In particular, the book will examine the impact of disease upon troop strength, which had special impact in the Revolutionary War through the post-Civil War period. Forward surgery in the modern sense came of age in World War I. The challenge of so many different theaters of conflict in World War II will be examined from the portable surgical hospital of the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations to the surgical evacuation hospital teams of the European Theater of Operations. The evolving care models will feature the story of the Korean War mobile army surgical hospital. The defining performance of helicopter air evacuation in Vietnam, along with improved surgical techniques, will be discussed. Finally, the many advances of forward surgery from the post-Vietnam era to the present will be presented.--Provided by publisher. |

Moriarty, 2006 The PerformM21 research project addressed the Army's need to adapt to the requirements of operations in the 21st century. The Incorporating Lessons Learned into the Army Competency Assessment Prototype (Lessons Learned) analyses is a subpart of the PerformM21 work and is discussed in this report. Specifically, Lessons Learned is concerned with incorporating tasks and knowledges that emerged from recent deployments into the standard Army-wide Common Tasks hierarchy. To this end, a prototype job analysis survey and test blueprint were developed, resulting in a process that is transportable to an operational program. Lessons learned sources were located, and challenges noted with them were discussed (e.g., locating Army-approved doctrine). Finally, new items were developed based on this lessons learned content. These items, with further review and modification, could be used in an operational assessment.--P. i. |

| combat application tourniquet training: Anthropometric Survey (ANSUR) II Pilot Study Steve Paquette, 2009 Virtually every Army materiel system in use was designed and/or sized using a database of anthropometric information that is 20 years old. It was based on the Army Anthropometric Survey (ANSUR), which was conducted in 1988 on only Active Duty Soldiers. However, more than one-half of today's fighting forces are National Guard and Reserve component troops. A pilot study (ANSUR II) was recently undertaken to (1) assess anthropometric change since 1988 within the Active Army; (2) to assess anthropometric differences among Army Active, Reserve, and National Guard components; and (3) to provide guidance on whether a further, more comprehensive survey and an update of the current ANSUR database are needed. This report provides measurement methods and summary statistics for 25 body measurements made on 2811 male and 651 female soldiers in the pilot study. The anthropometric change since 1988 and tests of component differences are presented in a separate technical report. The subjects were weighted by component, sex, age, and racial/ethnic group to match Total Army demographics as of March 2007 in order to provide interim design guidance on Total Army body size distributions as of March 2007. --- (report documentation page). |

We are an institution of higher learning; we need to be the best with everything we do. We are preparing the next generation of heroes for the greatest fighting force on the planet - the 8404 Hospital Corpsman assigned to the United States Marine Corps. They operate at the tip-of-the spear providing combat medicine to our operational forces; they are critical to the success of the Navy & Marine Corps Medicine Team. What each one of us does on a daily basis matters, regardless of our job. We all contribute to the mission. No one job is more important than the other. If just one link (team member) in this chain fails to perform a portion of the mission to standard, we all fail. You have the ability to make a positive difference in peoples’ lives every day. Every member of this team should ask themselves, “Am I living by our core values and making decisions that are consistent with these values when I interact with students, staff and the American public.” Key points: - Know your chain of command and how to use it. You have not exhausted your chain of command at FMTB-West until the issue reaches me. - If you are lacking something to perform your mission, bring it to the attention of leadership so we can promptly address it. - Any safety issue should immediately be brought to leadership. - Continually strive to improve processes; ask for help before it’s too late (in all aspects of your life and career). - If you see a problem, fix it or bring it to the attention of someone who can. Don't ignore it. - Supporting each other is just as important as supporting the mission. - Continue the relentless pursuit of customer satisfaction; feedback is a valuable tool in life and career. - Basic military courtesy should be a part of everyday life. - Always strive to do the right thing, even when no one is looking or when tempted to take the “easy” wrong. As a leader, I believe all members of the team are important. Our civilian shipmates are essential to the success of our mission. As a military leader, I believe, as the Sailor creed says, “I proudly serve my country's Navy combat team with Honor, Courage and Commitment. I am committed to excellence and the fair treatment of all”. I cannot over emphasize the importance of leadership from E-1 to O-6, everyone has a part; I expect officers to lead from the front by setting the example. Be sure that regularly scheduled performance counseling sessions are conducted for military and civilian employees. Cover the good which should be sustained as well as the areas which need improvement. Although I like to be informed, I believe in allowing leaders to lead, managers to manage. A big part of my job is to provide you the support systems necessary for you to accomplish your mission. Tell me what you need and don't worry how it will be resourced. Let me worry about that. |

Effective 1 January 2018, the total force will conduct the training and evaluation of 30 tasks designated in the BST program in order to sustain skills common for all Marines. Execution. Commanders Intent. The BST Program provides a structured approach for the service to ensure all Marines sustain proficiency in 30 of the 178 common skills taught during entry level training. The program will emphasize training using a leader-led, face-to-face approach. Small unit leaders (noncommissioned officers and above) will be the primary trainers and evaluators. Marines, private through general, will annually demonstrate their mastery of these common skills. Commanders will have flexibility in their approach to training and evaluating their units. Concept of Operations. The BST Program effectively begins 1 January 2018 as a calendar year requirement. However, commanders can immediately start incorporating BST training into their unit training plans and are encouraged to begin preparing their small unit leaders to conduct and evaluate the 30 common skills. Training support packages (TSP) and associated performance evaluation checklists for each of the 30 BST skills are online to assist small unit leaders. The TSPs provide small unit leaders the required information, performance steps, and evaluation criteria to facilitate leader-led training. The training is designed to be conducted in any environment from garrison to field, on the flight line, in the motor pool, maintenance bay, or on ship. Units may find that many of these skills are already embedded in their unit training plan, thereby minimizing the impact of the BST Program. Commanders determine how and when the training and evaluation will occur throughout the calendar year. Options range from training and evaluation over the course of a year to training throughout the year and then consolidating evaluation into a culminating event to foster esprit de corps. For example, training and evaluation can be combined in a teach it, test it method where Marines are evaluated immediately after the training is conducted, or Marines can be trained and then evaluated on a later date. All Marines have previously been taught these skills during entry level training, thus the expectation is that Marines have the ability to easily refresh and sustain these skills. However, if unable to pass, Marines will have multiple opportunities to remediate. Commanders have the entire calendar year to ensure their Marines train and pass all 30 of the skills, and will ensure that training is recorded. The 30 skills of BST Program are: Basic Infantry skills: Conduct observation Defend a position Describe the use of deadly force Employ a map and compass Handle detainees Identify anomalies Perform actions with a service rifle Perform immediate action upon contact with the enemy Perform weapons handling procedures with a service rifle Search an individual Stand a sentry post Visually identify indicators of improvised explosive devices Communications: Communicate using hand and arm signals Operate a VHF radio Submit a message First Aid: Apply a tourniquet Describe phases of tactical combat casualty care Treat a cold weather injury Treat a heat injury History: Identify significant events in Marine Corps history Identify the historical significance of Marine Corps uniform items Leadership: Apply the components of the decision cycle (OODA loop) Describe Marine air-ground task force organizations Describe operational security Describe stresses of combat Describe The Code of Conduct Describe rights of a prisoner of war Prepare for combat Uniform Code of Military Justice: Describe Article 15, Non-Judicial Punishment Describe Article 31, Rights of the Accused |
