Deployed Medicine
The medical content currently focuses on tactical combat casualty care (TCCC) training for combat medical personnel, and includes topics, such as hemorrhage control, airway management, hypothermia, pain control and care of wounds and splinting etc. TCCC focuses of providing the information you need to know to assess, treat and stabilize a patient at the point of injury.
Additional content will be added over time to cover a broad range of military trauma training resources ranging from the most basic training, suitable for non-medical military personnel, and more advanced material for doctors, nurses and physicians assistants.
Features:
• Pocket Guides offer short and compact learning modules.
• Videos from peers teach you “how-to” perform a skill in under 3 minutes, and other information.
• Podcasts provide key updates from experts.
• Reference Repository contains important reference materials or the “why” behind the techniques and information being taught.
• The app is designed to work online and offline to accommodate use in the field and while traveling abroad.
• In app alerts will keep you up-to-date and connected to the latest information.
The Deployed Medicine app was created by a multidisciplinary team of medical, learning and software engineers in close collaboration with U.S. military experts. All medical content contained in this app was reviewed and approved by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care, which is composed of trauma experts from across the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines.
The Deployed Medicine app is a research and development effort sponsored by the Defense Health Agency in Falls Church, Virginia.

It does not work offline. If you do not have an internet connection you can view nothing, even videos you have downloaded. Ditch the app and just go to the website and get the videos.
Needs updates. The November 2020 guidelines are not on here. They say they are, but they aren't. You still download the 2018 ones from where the 2020 ones should be. Just make it a browser redirect to the website if you're not going to keep it current.
I downloaded all the podcasts and CPGs, verified that the content was available offline, then on a deployment without connectivity I wasnt able to access ANY of it.
useful and convenient
Account says invalid after sign up
Keeps closing when I try to sign in. Going to uninstall, reinstall and see if that helps.
App is janky as hell, and I've not been able to get it to work correctly
Being in the military medical profession, this is a great tool not only for me but giving classes to my detachment.
Amazing app, this is exactly what I had been looking for. Thanks a million for making this knowledge accessible 😃
Top notch tactical medicine information and techniques
Grate app helps ppl learn incase of an emergency Better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it
Very helpful for 68W skills validation / Table 8s
My source for up to date validated information on the subject
Great app for refreshing your knowledge of TCCC.
Use it to study and keep up on TCCC and 68W
i recomend this tools ( good help)... 10 stars.
Awesome app. It taught me the right way to use the right supplies at the right time to save lives during the window between the moment of traumatic injury and availability of the next level of care. Whether your "battlefield" is daily civilian life or deployed down range, TCCC is essential. The life you save may be your own.
Great concept, but it regularly crashes.
This is an excellent reference app for TCCC. It can take a bit to do so, but downloading all the articles and video content for offline viewing is a great option. Recommend it to everyone serious about first aid.
Great app to keep your joes at the rop of the game.
Easily 5 stars for the content. The app itself could use some work. Still crashes from time to time. App "stops working" when you tap on "about". Offline viewing (storing content/videos on SD card) would increase the usefulness of the app dramatically - many areas on base (also at sea) have no cellular reception (much less wifi). It would be fantastic for the app to take advantage of SD card storage for offline study of the materials. Thank you developers for this app.
