Transforming battlefield casualty care
DARPA is focusing on the Live Chain: The critical steps of tactical combat casualty care that bridge the gap between injury on the battlefield and arrival at surgical care. The Live Chain encompasses self-aid, buddy-aid, medic care, en-route care during evacuation, and ultimately, surgical intervention.
The aim is to ensure warfighters survive the pre-surgical period despite the increased time between injury and definitive medical care.
It began with a raised hand
BTO Program Manager Lt. Col. Adam Willis, M.D., U.S. Air Force, shares his remarkable journey from a ROTC physics major to a leading innovator in military medicine.
He explains his work on groundbreaking programs like Golden Hour Evacuation (GOLDEVAC) and Making Anatomical Sense of Hemorrhage (MASH), and details his vision for an "ICU in a box" and autonomous surgical tools that could save countless lives when evacuation to a surgeon isn't possible.
| “ | You want to be here ... you want to come to DARPA. – Col. Geoffrey Ling, as quoted by Dr. Adam Willis on the advice that set him on his path to the agency. |
