Prototype of Joint Evacuation and Transport Simulation (JETS) System

Abstract

Proper medical training is critical to ensure that Service component members are prepared for wartime deployment, with a particular emphasis to support the en route care of patients from initial point of injury through several echelons to Continental U.S. (CONUS)-based military hospitals. Currently, medical training is generally conducted within each Service component independently (i.e., Army, Navy, Air Force, etc.) and our NATO/Coalition allies, with only occasional combined training. In addition, there is a wide repertoire of tools, devices, and approaches used to provide deployable training to Service members, ranging from devices (e.g., manikins) to computerized simulations to formal didactic training through internet-based, video, or classroom style instruction. This study and design effort systematically gathered and transformed requirements for JETS into an architecture description that provides a basis for understanding the current state of the potential component parts, the work required to achieve the Medical Simulation Enterprise (MSE) vision, and the staging of further development to successfully bring the full family of systems online.
