Designing the Prolonged Field Care Kit (PFAK) to Address the Logistical Challenges of Future Combat Casualty Care
Given the changing battlefield environment, efficient and effective PCC will play an increasingly important role in the management of combat trauma. The PFAK can meet this need by providing a practical and standardized resuscitation kit generated by expert military and trauma personnel consensus, carried conveniently in the LMR.
