Tribalco Integrated Casualty Solution

Saturday, May 11th, 2013

The Tribalco Integrated Casualty Solution (TICS) is the official medical set of the USSOCOM TCCC CASEVAC Program. The first Set was fielded in June of 2012 and multiple SOCOM elements have already deployed with the equipment. Unique to this medical set, in addition to the advanced medical equipment, is the focus on battlefield rescue of trauma casualties. Realizing that you can’t treat a patient that you can’t access, the Set includes specialized extrication, climbing and rigging equipment giving rescue capabilities to Advanced Tactical Practitioners.

The Prime Integrator, Tribalco, will have TICS available for viewing at next week’s SOFIC in Tampa. Come see them in Booth #218.

Oral I.V. Supports 30th Annual Best Ranger Competition at Fort Benning

Friday, May 10th, 2013

Oral I.V. and Warrior Wound Care are proud to have supported the 2013 Best Ranger Competition, which recently took place at Fort Benning, Georgia. Warrior Wound Care supplied Oral I.V. hydration solution to all 100 participants for the 30th anniversary of this grueling competition, which has evolved from one originally created to salute the best two-man “buddy” team in the Ranger Department at Fort Benning to determine the best two-man team from the entire United States Armed Forces. The Best Ranger Competition is a U.S. Army event and supported by The National Ranger Association, Inc.

4-pack

Major Nathan M. Setka, Ranger Brigade Surgeon, stated in a letter of appreciation to Warrior Wound Care:

“During both the 2012 and 2013 competitions, Warrior Wound Care provided an individual aid kit featuring Oral I.V. rehydration formula to each competitor, as well as Oral I.V. packages for the medical staff and support cadre. The 2012 event was the first time that there were no reported heat or dehydration injuries or illness. In the 2013 Best Ranger Competition for the second year employing Oral I.V., the competitors suffered no dehydration or heat-related injuries during this most grueling and physically exhaustive event, open only to the most prepared and elite soldiers of the U.S. Armed Forces.”

The Oral I.V. proprietary formula is based on the science of hydration, one of the most fundamental drivers of human performance. Oral I.V. provides the critical electrolytes and minerals the body needs and nothing else – no caffeine, sugars, stimulants, preservatives, additives or artificial flavors. Due to their crystalloid form, the electrolytes in Oral I.V. are absorbed in the body directly upon contact with mucous membranes, creating an immediately noticeable improvement in performance for demanding operations and long-term or explosive short-term exercise. Oral I.V. restores proper blood sugar levels and promotes correct blood volume, resulting in higher energy levels, heightened concentration and alertness, faster recovery from injury or strenuous exercise, and much more.

The Oral I.V. product is now available via GSA Advantage, the government’s premier online shopping system, at www.gsaadvantage.gov. Customers can also purchase Oral I.V. under the Warrior Wound Care GSA schedule (GSA Contract V797D-30120) by contacting sales@warriorwoundcare.com.

Protect The Force Inc. Enters into Agreement with Emergstat Technologies LLC to Promote Wound Treatment Technology

Wednesday, May 8th, 2013

Some very cool news from the guys at Protect The Force regarding a new lightweight bioactive wound dressing/pack from EmergStat Technologies LLC.

Protect The Force Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Mission Ready Services Inc. has entered into a consulting agreement with research and development company, EmergStat Technologies LLC. In return for an equity position in the Company, PTF will introduce and advance EmergStat’s wound management technologies to military and first responders worldwide.

Uncontrolled bleeding (hemorrhaging) continues to be the leading cause of preventable combat-related deaths and ranks second in civilian trauma incidents. EmergStat’s proprietary technology centers on a new lightweight bioactive wound dressing/pack which offers a plethora of potentially life-saving benefits including the following:

1. stops bleeding in less than two minutes at any point on the body;
2. easy application by a medic or the wounded soldier themselves;
3. prevention of infection via localized delivery of antimicrobials;
4. direct pain-relief through a controlled release of analgesics;
5. ready-to-use with no special preparation or training;
6. breathable to aid wound healing, and;
7. stable under harsh climatic conditions for extended periods of time

In addition to EmergStat’s innovative wound dressing solutions, the Company is also developing a nanofibrous bioactive dermal dressing composed of a non-degradable electrospun polymer barrier and a biodegradable layer. The non-degradable layer will prevent further trauma by protecting the wound site from mechanical stress and bacterial infection while the degradable polymer layer will incorporate antimicrobial, tissue ingrowth and vascularization agents.

Raven Concealment Systems and Eleven 10 LLC Collaborate on New Low-Viz Blow-Out Kit

Wednesday, May 1st, 2013

This is literally a first-draft prototype of a low-vis blow-out kit Raven Concealment Systems is co-developing with fellow NE Ohio-based tactical company Eleven 10 LLC.

20130501-151139.jpg

This kit is mounted on a Raven Concealment Systems ModuLoader Frames (a 5-finger Modular Frame).

The tourniquet carrier uses no straps or flaps, yet securely holds a CAT TQ in any position. The best part about this component is that it requires no secondary motions to deploy the TQ; simply grab the CAT and draw it from the carrier.

The mini-blow out kit uses a compact pull-out pouch containing a trauma dressing, Quick Clot Combat Gauze, Russell Chest Seal, and a pair of gloves.

The pouch design is only a proof of concept, and the production version will be much cleaner execution.
