U.S. Army Capt. Brian Robinette, a contracting officer with the U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity (USAMMDA), watches an introduction class for the Ventway Sparrow Portable Resuscitator (VSPR) during a field exercise and operational assessment, Fort Liberty, North Carolina, Nov. 1, 2023. During the operational assessment, medical developers with USAMMDA and evaluators from the U.S. Army Medical Test and Evaluation Activity (USAMTEAC) joined U.S. Army Soldiers with the 36th Medical Company Area Support (MCAS) to test and assess the progress of the VSPR and the Prolonged Care Augmentation Detachment (PCAD) medical equipment set. The PCAD and VSPR are development programs designed to enable lifesaving and life prolonging combat casualty care at and near the front lines. USAMMDA and USAMTEAC routinely partner during medical device program development to ensure medical devices meet the high standards of U.S. Army medicine and equip joint force medical providers for combat operations and training. USAMMDA, the U.S. Department of Defense's lead medical product development activity, develops new drugs, vaccines, devices, and medical support equipment designed to enhance Joint Force readiness and maximize survival of medical casualties on the battlefield.
