Timing is critical in a deployed environment and seconds can mean the difference between life and death. Here in Fort Bliss, Texas, the Medical Simulation Training Center (MSTC) provides hands on experience and realistic combat life saving classes to prepare Soldiers for when it matters most.
The course consist of tourniquet placement, nasopharyngeal airways (NPA), and performing needle chest decompression (NCD) to treat tension pneumothorax or a collapsed lung. Tourniquets are used to stop severe bleeding, while NPAs and NCDs are used to manage the airway or lung function.
