Leveraging Trauma Lessons from War to Win in a Complex Global Environment

Kyle N Remick. US Army Med Dep J. 2016 Apr-Sep.

Abstract

The US military has made great strides in combat casualty care since 2001. As the Army concludes combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, it faces new operational challenges in trauma care. The military medical community must stay ahead of the curve through sustaining current investments in combat casualty care research. This article describes lessons learned at war from a Joint Trauma System perspective in order to place in context how we should proceed in order to provide optimal care for our Warfighters in the future.
