TCCC

TCCC, or Tactical Combat Casualty Care, is a set of medical protocols specifically developed for managing trauma in military settings, especially in combat situations. It focuses on three main priorities: controlling severe bleeding, maintaining airway and breathing, and treating for shock. TCCC emphasizes the importance of providing care in a timely manner, often in dangerous environments, using techniques that are simple yet effective. The goal is to stabilize injured soldiers and improve their chances of survival until they can receive more comprehensive medical treatment.
