Core Enroute Care R&D - Aerospace Medicine/Human Performance Focus (AF)

Abstract

This project area seeks to advance aeromedical evacuation (AE), Critical Care Air Transport Team (CCATT), and Tactical Critical Care Evacuation Team (TCCET) capabilities through the research and development of rapid, more efficient, and safer patient transport from the pre-staging for strategic or intra-theater air evacuation to definitive care, and to understand the effects of transport on injured war fighters. Efforts will focus on translating technological advancements and groundbreaking clinical research into translatable practice and technology products. The sub-project areas include: Impact of Transport on patients and crew which includes the optimization of provider performance and patient care, En-Route Medical Technologies which includes technology advances and assessment, and En-Route Patient Safety which includes efforts to ensure the safe transport of patients through the AE system.
