4 TEMS Providers SWAT officer Officer/EMT ( EMT Tactical ) Paramedic TEMS Medical Director Tactical Combat Casualty Care Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) Current US military model of tactical medicine First publication in 1996 (Military Medicine) 3 phases of care: Care under fire Tactical field care Tactical evacuation care Care Under Fire 1. Return fire and take cover. 2. Direct or expect casualty to remain engaged as a combatant if appropriate. 3. Direct casualty to move to cover and apply self aid if able. 4. Try to keep the casualty from sustaining additional wounds. 4
5 Care Under Fire 5. Casualties should be extricated from burning vehicles or buildings and moved to places of relative safety. Do what is necessary to stop the burning process. 6. Airway management is generally best deferred until the Tactical Field Care phase Care Under Fire 7. Stop life threatening external hemorrhage if tactically feasible: Direct casualty to control hemorrhage by self aid if able. Use a CoTCCC recommended tourniquet for hemorrhage that is anatomically amenable to tourniquet application. Apply the tourniquet proximal to the bleeding site, over the uniform, tighten, and move the casualty to cover. Tactical Field Care 1. Casualties with an altered mental status should be disarmed immediately. 2. Airway Management a. Unconscious casualty without airway obstruction: Chin lift or jaw thrust maneuver Nasopharyngeal airway Place casualty in recovery position 5
6 Tactical Field Care 2. Airway Management b. Casualty with airway obstruction or impending airway obstruction : Chin lift or jaw thrust maneuver Nasopharyngeal airway Allow casualty to assume any position that best protects the airway, to include sitting up Place casualty in recovery position If previous measures unsuccessful: Surgical cricothyroidotomy (with lidocaine if conscious) Tactical Field Care 3. Breathing a. In a casualty with progressive respiratory distress and known or suspected torso trauma, consider a tension pneumothorax and decompress the chest on the side of the injury with a 14 gauge, inch needle/catheter unit inserted in the second intercostal space at the midclavicular line. Ensure that the needle entry into the chest is not medial to the nipple line and is not directed towards the heart. Tactical Field Care 3. Breathing b. All open and/or sucking chest wounds should be treated by immediately applying an occlusive material to cover the defect and securing it in place. Monitor the casualty for the potential development of a subsequent tension pneumothorax. 6
7 Tactical Field Care 4. Bleeding a. Assess for unrecognized hemorrhage and control all sources of bleeding. If not already done, use a CoTCCC recommended tourniquet to control lifethreatening external hemorrhage that is anatomically amenable to tourniquet application or for any traumatic amputation. Apply directly to the skin 2 3 inches above wound. Tactical Field Care 4. Bleeding b. For compressible hemorrhage not amenable to tourniquet use or as an adjunct to tourniquet removal (if evacuation time is anticipated to be longer than two hours), use Combat Gauze as the hemostatic agent of choice. Combat Gauze should be applied with ihat least 3 minutes of direct pressure. Before Bf releasing any tourniquet on a casualty who has been resuscitated for hemorrhagic shock, ensure a positive response to resuscitation efforts (i.e., a peripheral pulse normal in character and normal mentation if there is no traumatic brain injury (TBI)). Tactical Field Care 5. Intravenous (IV) access 6. Fluid resuscitation 7. Prevention of hypothermia 8. Penetrating Eye Trauma 9. Monitoring 10. Inspect and dress known wounds 11. Check for additional wounds 12. Provide analgesia as necessary 7
8 Tactical Field Care 13. Splint fractures and recheck pulse 14. Antibiotics: recommended for all open combat wounds 15. Burns 16. Communicate with the casualty if possible 17. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) 18. Documentation of Care Tactical Evacuation Care 1. Airway Management (advanced airways) 2. Breathing 3. Bleeding 4. Intravenous (IV) access 5. Fluid resuscitation 6. Prevention of hypothermia 7. Penetrating Eye Trauma Tactical Evacuation Care 8. Monitoring 9. Inspect and dress known wounds if not already done 10. Check for additional wounds 11. Provide analgesia as necessary 12. Reassess fractures and recheck pulses 13. Antibiotics: recommended for all open combat wounds 8
9 Tactical Evacuation Care 14. Burns 15. Pneumatic Antishock Garment 16. Documentation of Care TCCC: Limitations Great training tool Critical concept of prioritization of tactical over medical Military protocols, not adapted dto domestic law enforcement (tourniquets rarely needed) Roles of the Medical Director 9
