Abstract

Since the late 1980s, the US Army has been deploying forward surgical teams to the most intense areas of conflict to care for personnel injured in combat. The forward surgical team is a 20-person medical team that is highly mobile, extremely agile, and has relatively little need of outside support to perform its surgical mission. In order to perform this mission, however, team training and trauma training are required. The large majority of these teams do not routinely train together to provide patient care, and that training currently takes place at the US Army Trauma Training Center (ATTC). The training staff of the ATTC is a specially selected 10-person team made up of active duty personnel from the Army Medical Department assigned to the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital Ryder Trauma Center in Miami, Florida. The ATTC team of instructors trains as many as 11 forward surgical teams in 2-week rotations per year so that the teams are ready to perform their mission in a deployed setting. Since the first forward surgical team was trained at the ATTC in January 2002, more than 112 forward surgical teams and other similar-sized Department of Defense forward resuscitative and surgical units have rotated through trauma training at the Ryder Trauma Center in preparation for deployment overseas.

摘要

自20世纪80年代末以来，美国陆军一直在向冲突最激烈的地区部署前方外科手术队，以救治在战斗中受伤的人员。前方外科手术队是一支由20人组成的医疗队，机动性强、极为灵活，执行外科手术任务时对外界支持的需求相对较少。然而，为了执行这项任务，团队训练和创伤培训是必不可少的。这些团队中的绝大多数并没有定期一起进行提供患者护理的训练，目前这种训练是在美国陆军创伤培训中心（ATTC）进行的。ATTC的训练人员是一支经过特别挑选的10人团队，由来自陆军医疗部的现役人员组成，他们被分配到佛罗里达州迈阿密市的迈阿密大学/杰克逊纪念医院莱德创伤中心。ATTC的教员团队每年以两周一轮的方式培训多达11支前方外科手术队，以便这些团队能够在部署环境中随时执行任务。自2002年1月第一支前方外科手术队在ATTC接受培训以来，已有超过112支前方外科手术队以及其他规模类似的国防部前方复苏和外科单位在莱德创伤中心接受创伤培训，为海外部署做准备。
