Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC)

Abstract

TCCC provides lifesaving medical devices, ancillary equipment and Casualty Evacuation (CASEVAC) sets for SOF. The CASEVAC procures a suite of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved medical items including, but not limited, to intraosseous infusion devices, patient monitoring and assessment devices, emergency airway kits, as well as devices that provide SOF the capability to support extraction, mobility, transportation, and sustainment of casualties in forward areas. The TCCC program fields essential lifesaving CASEVAC equipment and capabilities and is a platform to transition capabilities developed under the National Mission Force's Tactical Medical Programs. This capability provides significant ability to lessen battlefield losses by providing timely, critical lifesaving and evacuation capabilities to the forward-deployed SOF operators.
