Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army has been transforming itself into what it calls the Future Force, which relies on a combination of rapid operations, dispersed forces, and superior information to enable a medium-weight force to fight with the punch of heavy conventional forces. These new concepts pose considerable challenges for the organizations that support the combat forces on the battlefield, and the challenge is particularly great for medical forces, which must find, stabilize, and evacuate casualties that are spread across a dispersed battlefield. To determine what the new concepts mean for providing medical support to the fighting units, the Army Medical Department (AMEDD) conducted five Transformation Workshops (ATWs) from 2002 to 2004 to identify the challenges the new concepts posed to providing battlefield medical support and to explore what those challenges might imply for medical force structure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Medical Department (AMEDD) Transformation Workshop (ATW) V, which was conducted at the RAND Corporation Washington Office 25-28 May 2004, is described in this report. It includes an analysis and discussion of the workshop results. This workshop continued the assessment, begun in ATWs I-IV, of the medical risks associated with emerging Army operational concepts and the capacity of the AMEDD to mitigate these risks. The principal purpose of ATW V was to continue the process of providing casualty demand estimates that will need to be addressed by the health service support (HSS) system at echelons above the unit of action (UA). AMEDD subject matter experts supported the workshop and examined the ability of an envisioned UA medical structure to support Future Force combat operations that generated 429 casualties in an approximately 100-hour combat simulation provided by the U.S. Army. The HSS system in the UAs was heavily taxed, and the residual demand for evacuation and care at higher echelons was similarly significant. Nearly two-thirds of the casualties were determined to be ready for evacuation to these higher echelons; their disposition will necessarily depend upon capabilities at those echelons. The complete effect of the casualties examined during ATW V on the HSS system is not known, because the HSS system at higher echelons has yet to be fully developed. The results of the workshop will provide information valuable in designing the medical system at those echelons.

Book excerpt: The Army is in the process of transforming itself and is developing new operational concepts and technologies to enable this transformation. The Army Medical Department (AMEDD) has been deeply involved in the overall Army transformation effort since its inception, and it has identified operational medicine issues whose resolution will be critical to its ability to support the Army of the future. The purpose of this research was to develop a method to assess these issues and further investigate a subset of them. Rand Arroyo Center designed and conducted the Army Medical Department Transformation Workshops (ATW) held in April, August, and November 2002. The purpose of the workshops was to initiate an assessment of the medical risks associated with emerging Army operational concepts and the capacity of AMEDD to mitigate these risks. Medical risk is defined generally as the number, severity, and fate of casualties incurred. The workshops examined combat operations of a notional future force, each supported by a different health service support (HSS) structure. Eight hours of simulated combat provided the context for the workshops, generating casualty data to support the analysis of the HSS structure. AMEDD experts determined likely outcomes for individual casualties resulting from the Army simulation of its 2015 future force. It was concluded that, in this particular simulation, the structure and concepts postulated for the evacuation and treatment of future force combat casualties were overwhelmed by 8 hours of relatively low-intensity combat. This report describes the development of issues that provided a basis for the workshops, workshop organization, the composition of the various teams and cells, objectives and issues, the scenario used, and the analysis methodology employed. Finally, the report provides results and observations. (3 tables, 2 figures).

Book excerpt: This report documents the Army Medical Department s continuing process of identifying medical issues in the Army s transformation to the Future Force. It contains an assessment of the AMEDD Transformation Workshop (ATW) V; describes the workshop s organization, objectives, scenario, and analysis methodology; and provides observations and conclusions. The purpose of this workshop was to continue the assessment, begun in ATWs I IV, of the medical risks associated with emerging Army operational concepts and the capacity of the AMEDD to mitigate these risks. ATWs I III focused on medical risk in a Unit of Action (UA) within a theater that had a defined echelons-above-UA Health Service Support (HSS) system (a 44-bed Combat Support Hospital [CSH]). Based in part on these initial workshops, the AMEDD determined that a 44-bed CSH would likely be insufficient, and it set out to determine what HSS system would be required at echelons above UA. ATW IV assessed the medical risk and demand on an echelons-above-UA HSS system that 76 casualties from a single UA would create during a simulated 12-hour battle. The principal focus of ATW V was to continue the process of establishing the casualty demand data that must be addressed by the echelons-above-UA HSS system. It involved four UAs (and supporting units of employment [UE]) with 429 casualties over a 100-hour simulated battle. Thus, the principal purpose of ATW V was to provide analytical support to the AMEDD to assist it in designing the HSS system above the UA level.

Book excerpt: At the request of the U.S. Army, the Board on Army Research and Development of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine conducted a 3-day workshop to explore how the Army can improve its strategic medical infrastructure planning with a view to 2035. The workshop, held July 14-16, 2020, brought together experts and key stakeholders from academia, industry, and government. The Army requires fidelity, consistency, and predictability in planning and managing research, development, test, and evaluation resources for medical infrastructure across all appropriation sources to effectively develop, deliver, and respond to military medical capability needs. In response to the Army's requirement, the workshop was designed to address the components of a sustainable, reinforcing enterprise framework (organizational and fiscal). Presentations and discussions examined roles, responsibilities, and coordinating mechanisms among major stakeholders of battlefield medicine; case studies of comparably complex non-government enterprise solutions; and opportunities to link ends, ways, and means for improvements. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussion of the workshop.
