Combat Trauma Patient Simulation (CTPS) Program

Abstract

The purpose of the CTPS Program is to more realistically assess the impact of battlefield casualties in order to increase medical readiness. The system primarily consists of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) and government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) live, virtual, and constructive simulation components. Its capabilities include simulating, replicating, and assessing battlefield injuries by type and category, monitoring the movement of casualties on the battlefield, capturing the time of patient diagnosis and treatment, and comparing interventions and outcomes at each military healthcare service de?ivery level. The CTPS System is Department of Defense (DOD) High Level Architecture (HLA) compliant.
