What can I say? I’m intrigued. Coming soon from Redback One.
Dark Angel Medical has released the new “Pocket D.A.R.K.” It’s a compact 4″ x 4″ x 1″, 7 ounces of life-saving goodness! Small enough to fit in a cargo pocket, purse, glove compartment but big enough to get the job done. Available through www.darkangelmedical.com
Here’s the official blurb on the the Infrascanner 2000 –
It is a portable screening device that uses Near-Infrared (NIR) technology to screen patients for intracranial bleeding, identifying those who would most benefit from immediate referral to a CT scan and neurosurgical intervention. In the triage of head trauma patients, the Infrascanner can identify patients most likely to have intracranial bleeding.
Now, think about this. You now have a diagnostic tool that you can use in the field to detect Traumatic Brain Injury. That is huge.
INFRASCAN products are available for unit and agency purchase from www.ADSinc.com.
SOTech will be at Military Health Systems Research Symposium (MHSRS) this week displaying new innovations to their medical panels and packs making the pouches interchangeable and quick disconnect for grab-and-go medicine. SOTech’s Rapid Access Modular Medical Panel (RAMMP) and Sliver Panel (ISMB) are standard issue and found on the walls of hospitals and medical vehicles throughout the DOD. Following the SOTech Mission Pack modularity concept, SOTech presented the SOTech Medical System Total Battle Space Solution where packs and panels from the medic to the ground vehicle to the water craft to the aircraft and into the hospital have interchangeable modular medical pouches using interchangeable high visibility labels. This promotes continuity of care, identification, and supply. The quick disconnect features follow SOTech’s go bag concept promoting leaving bulky items on the vehicles and sending runners back to grab and go specialty and resupply items from organizer panels and drop them into go bags for return into the fight. These panels interact with the other SOTech medical packs, IFAKs, and kits that are issue items of the Special Operations Forces Medical Equipment Sets (SOF-MES) which are standard issue to deploying 18 Deltas, and other SOF medical operators and now are seen issued through DLA to medical units throughout the military.
SOLAR modules, cable release pouches, tools organizers, pill dispensers, small organizer pouches and vinyl windowed pouches are also being added to SOTech’s offerings. Ironically, SOTech’s original RAMMP panels integrated vinyl windows, but the Army nixed the idea for fear of drying and cracking. But now because of demand from other branches of service, SOTech is reintroducing the windows as an option.
Also in production are series of MOLLE/PALS panels custom cut to fit the special vehicle walls. You can see SOTech tags on these panels mounted in some MRAP vehicles, Navy SBT water craft, Coast Guard helicopters, and other platforms. These pouches disconnect adapters and label systems interconnect and promote continuity across all of these platforms.
Check out SOTech in booth #84 at Military Health System Research Symposium (MHSRS) this week in Fort Lauderdale. For information on designing panels to mount to your vehicles systems, contact clark@specopstech.com.
We first spoke about the new Mystery Ranch Spadelock during SHOT Show. The Spadelock system is modular in nature and accommodates a variety of accessories such as Medical gear, an MR laptop sleeve or a military radio. The Spadelocks fit inside the bag against the body panel for protection and quick access, locking into place.
One of our readers sent us these shots of his 3DAP Spadelock Medical Insert.
Thanks FH!
Patient treatment cards are tough. How they are laid out is as much a function of local protocols as what makes sense. PJ Nate Morrison has applied his personal tastes to his own version.
