2. What kind of change to casualty surival rates occurs when aeromedical evacuation (AE) is available?

Explanation

When aeromedical evacuation (AE) is available, casualty survival rates significantly increase. This means that the presence of AE enables a higher number of casualties to survive their injuries compared to when AE is not available. The availability of AE allows for faster and more efficient transportation of injured individuals to medical facilities where they can receive the necessary treatment and care. This timely and specialized evacuation contributes to a significant increase in casualty survival rates.

This means that when a patient needs to be transported for non-urgent medical reasons, they should receive the necessary support within 24 hours. On the other hand, urgent AE support should be provided within 12 hours of notification. This means that when a patient needs to be transported for urgent medical reasons, they should receive the necessary support within 12 hours.

Submit
8. What combination of teams make up the Expeditionary Medical Support (EMEDS) +25 increment?

Explanation

The Expeditionary Medical Support (EMEDS) +25 increment is made up of EMEDS Basic, EMEDS +10, UTC FFEP4/5, and UTC FFEE3. This combination of teams ensures that there is a basic medical support unit (EMEDS Basic) as well as additional support teams (EMEDS +10, UTC FFEP4/5, and UTC FFEE3) to provide enhanced medical care in expeditionary environments.

Submit
