Battlefield medicine is a specialised field that focuses on providing essential medical assistance in the field. During combat operations, access to healthcare is very limited and it becomes crucial to provide quick and effective assistance.
Battlefield rescue is an integral part of warfare medicine. It involves the immediate provision of essential first aid and the evacuation of casualties from the field of operations. Medics have to work under pressure, operate in highly stressful conditions, often under fire and in difficult terrain with minimal resources. Medics are tasked with stabilising the condition of the wounded and evacuating them to field hospitals, for example.
In this category you will find the equipment that medics and battlefield rescuers need. Available items include first aid kits, IFAK medical pouches, stasis and stasis pouches, multitools, military stretchers, rescue torches, bandages, compresses, bandages, medical slings, plasters, gloves, mouthpieces for artificial respiration, thermal foils and blankets, heated waistcoats or rescue backpacks and medical patches.
