Shipboard Medical Backpack: Preproduction Model Test and Evaluation.

Abstract

The overall objective of this project was to develop and evaluate a backpack that would improve the method of carrying medical equipment to the site of an injury aboard ship. The specific objectives of the preproduction phase of testing were to: (1) Test and evaluate the preproduction model shipboard medical backpack on various classes and sizes of ships (CVN to MSO) to determine its operational effectiveness and operational suitability; (2) Determine the total number of backpacks required for fleet use and the cost impact of implementing the backpack, and (3) Evaluate the instruction manual for the backpack.
