Saving Lives is the Mission

A Special Operations Independent Duty Corpsman (SOIDC) is a highly specialized U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman (HM) with advanced medical skills, trained to operate primarily with MARSOC and other highly specialized special operations units.

They are experts at providing immediate, comprehensive care in austere, high-risk environments, functioning as a battlefield medic for direct action, reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare missions. SOIDCs receive specialized training to diagnose, treat, and manage complex trauma and medical issues without a physician present, making them vital for survivability in special operations.

Are you capable of going where others can not?

Who would be your pick for a medic on a mission? Why???

Pararescue saves lives where medicine and terrain both fight back.

This 12-year review shows why PJs are the DoD’s most adaptable rescue medics.
Operating everywhere from combat zones to Alaska wilderness, they handled everything from IED trauma to plane crashes with a 97.2% survival rate among living casualties.

Their biggest obstacle isn’t skill; it’s documentation. Non-standardized reporting limits data capture and future planning.

Improving documentation would sharpen training, planning, and mission capability.

🔗 Champion better data systems that support the medics who do the impossible.

Hospital security officers getting their annual tourniquet training refresher by our emergency department staff, why the security team carries tourniquets in a hospital?, it can take as little as 3 to 5 minutes to bleed to death from a severe arterial bleed, we need an immediate effective response to save lives, especially in a high threat situation like an active shooter, which has happened many times in hospitals and other healthcare facilities, in our Central Florida community we have expanded this training program in collaboration between the hospital and the local police department to also train local school teachers

Last night, a cruise ship called for help more than 100 miles off the Big Sur coast. A 79-year-old passenger was unresponsive and unable to breathe on her own. Weather was deteriorating. The situation was growing more complex.

Your Cal Guard’s Silicon Valley–based Rescue Wing launched anyway — flying through thick fog and severe conditions to reach the ship, stabilize the patient, and bring her safely to medical care on shore.

Your 129th Rescue Wing: showing up when the margin for error disappears, and no other option exists — Warriors for you, California.

Could you stay this calm? Wishing the best possible outcome and recovery for Collin 🙏🏼💪🏼
🇺🇸 🇲🇲 “On Nov. 18, I stepped on a regime landmine while accompanying - on a reconnaissance mission in State, . I lost two toes and part of my left foot. Shrapnel pierced my right leg, my left hand and face. I received initial, lifesaving medical care in Myanmar, but after two weeks I was evacuated for further treatment. My recovery will be long, and I may still need to have my left foot amputated. I am fortunate to be alive; this could have been much worse. Please consider donating to my PayPal, paypal.me/collinmayfield121, to help cover my medical expenses.”

Please follow Collin’s work, which is extensive, and consider assisting with his medical expenses. The stories of people’s lives that he shares need to be told and documented and without people with his level of dedication so many of them will go untold!

10g vs 14g NDC Does size matter? Here’s what they did to find out.
Study: 116 NDC attempts with 10g and 14g fenestrated needles (Enhanced ARS) in 2nd ICS MCL and 5th ICS AAL in fresh cadavers (31 total) with induced pneumothorax (pressure 15mmHg).
Results:
-Equal success (91%) between 10g and 14g
-Faster time to decompression with 10g (22s vs 40s)
-AAL vs MCL had equal success and time to decompression
-Audible release of air higher in 10g (65% vs 35%)
My take on it: Both 14g and 10g NDC work.
If you are doing an NDC go ahead with the 10g to get faster relief of tension and potential for audible release (use a Capnospot though since audible release is unreliable especially in a noisy environment).
Use a fenestrated needle, faster air release and redundant airflow pathways to help alleviate clogging.
AAL and MCL locations both have advantages and disadvantages; they both work so train on both and know how to do this skill safely!
Technique is important! Depth limiting technique should always be used (ensures needle does not pe*****te more than 2cm into the pleural cavity). The authors reiterated that you should NOT bury the needle to the hub. See second picture.
*limitations of the study: They used older cadavers in a lab setting so this isn’t a perfect replication of real world physiology but it does help us get a good idea.

Combat Rescue Officers. What do we know? I know Alaska is “First There”😉 with a PJ officer aka Combat Rescue Officer putting on a Star. Congratulations to General Komatsu. Good luck to you and Col. Kirby as they both take on new responsibilities in one of the most demanding locations to be a PJ. Bad ass is all I can say, HooYah Team! 2nd Picture, “Dad J” is a PJ who looks like your Father who raised you well but knows when you “F”ed up and will not tolerate that in his family.
