Core Skills Training
Hemorrhage Control - TCCC
As part of this multiplayer open scenario, the learner will begin by identifying the severity of the wounds and securing the patient in a safe zone. The learner will then secure the CAT tourniquet on the affected extremity, ensuring no more than three finger space between the wound and tourniquet. This will be followed by the learner ensuring the elimination of the distal pulse and packing the wound to control the bleeding. Identify the gunshot wound to the chest and place an occlusive dressing to prevent the inflow of air to the lung cavity. This scenario is set in a photorealistic environment and all necessary affordances are made available to assist learners in performing their tasks with efficiency and effectiveness.
