Joint Trauma System Deployed Medicine App

The Deployed Medicine app was created by a multidisciplinary team of medical, learning, and software engineers in close collaboration with U.S. military experts. All medical content contained in this app was reviewed and approved by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care, which is composed of trauma experts from across the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines.

The information contained in this app is designed to serve as a supplementary resource to reinforce prior training and to help you deliver high quality trauma care in deployed settings. The medical content currently focuses on tactical combat casualty care (TCCC) training for combat medical personnel and includes topics such as hemorrhage control, airway management, hypothermia, pain control, care of wounds, splinting, etc. TCCC focuses on providing the information you need to know to assess, treat, and stabilize a patient at the point of injury.

Features include:

• • TCCC guidelines, including guidelines for canine/K9 battlefield injuries
• • Pocket guides offering short and compact learning modules
• • Short “how-to” skills videos taught by peers
• • Podcasts with key updates from experts
• • Repository of important reference materials or the “why” behind the techniques and information being taught
• • In-app alerts to keep users up-to-date and connected to the latest information

The app is designed to work online and offline to accommodate use in the field and while traveling abroad.
