Friday, December 27th, 2013

Columbia, SC, December 26, 2013 – Panteao Productions introduces the first video in the Make Ready series dedicated to medical care. Combat Lifesaver is an introduction to the principles of Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC), particularly the Care Under Fire (CUF) portion of the doctrine. The video is taught by John “Doc” Spears. Doc is an instructor for EAG Tactical. He started his career in the US Army as an 18D, Special Operations Medical Sergeant in 3rd battalion 7th Special Forces Group. He joined the 12th Special Forces Group while attending college, obtained a biochemistry degree, attended Osteopathic medical school, and then completed an orthopedic surgical residency and finally a spine surgery fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic Florida. In this video, Doc reviews care under fire, the individual first aid kit (IFAK), packing a wound and applying a battle dressing, tourniquets, hemorrhage, the airway, chest injuries, drag & carry, and more. This is a must have and must watch video if you are serious about first aid treatment and casualty care.

SOMA – ZIIVAA

Wednesday, December 18th, 2013

ziivaa

The ZIIVAA belt is a natural, drug-free treatment for pain or discomfort caused by menstruation. The non-invasive treatments take only 15 minutes each with users often requiring only one treatment daily. Treatment using the ZIIVAA belt works faster and longer than opioids, making it ideal for deployed female service members.

The ZIIVAA belt functions by applying pressure on the hips, easing tension on the ligaments, pelvis, and uterus. One-size-fits-all, the ZIIVAA belt requires no energy source or maintenance to operate.

Wednesday, December 18th, 2013

While it wasn’t launched at SOMA, the new RIGID TQ Case for the CAT from Eleven 10, LLC certainly in with our theme of the day; medical.

RIGID-BLK-LoRes

The design is similar to their Kydex CAT Tourniquet case, but they’ve introduced injection molding. This also allowed them to incorporate holes for more mounting options (including Raven Concealment’s ModuLoader and Paddles) as well as various ride positions.

Bottom Line:

The new RIGID TQ Case provides the same one-handed, one-step access to your tourniquet as their original Kydex CAT Case, but in a new, stronger, more modular design.

Stronger, more mounting options, perfect retention, shipping now.
