Battlefield Triage Technology: Addressing Effectiveness in Far-Forward Combat Casualty Care
OCCUPATIONAL APPLICATIONSWe identified strategies to support the development or evaluation of technology solutions for a medical response in remote and austere environments. We conducted a systematic analysis of relevant tasks and potential errors within battlefield medical response and communicated the resultant system taxonomy for interdisciplinary application by both engineers and health care practitioners. Our paper contributes to continued advancements of technology support for remote casualty care through detailed insights into remote medical response, identification of system vulnerabilities, and a consolidated system analysis.
