Medical Simulation Training Centers (MSTC)• Origin

VCSA DIRECTIVE – 2005 ONS – 2005 CPD – closed AROC, at JROC

• Locations and uses 18 sites around the world; Plans for 18 additional sites; next fielding is Ft. Benning in 2009;

Saudi Arabia (FMS) in 2009.

• Progression Next MSTC System upgrades are the Medical Training Evaluation

and Review (MeTER) System, and Tetherless Mannequin (TLM).

Medical Simulation Mission Focus Areas

Advanced Medic Training Technologies ATO

Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TC3) Game• Developed for use with the

91W10 Healthcare Specialist Course

• Follows the MOUT/TC3 Program of Instruction

• Interchangeable environments, courseware, modules and scenarios

• Standardized assessment across training

• Initial and refresher training capabilities

• Mission editing tools to create new training

• Automated assessment for individuals/team

Severe Trauma Simulation ATO

• Improve realism: Look, feel, smell,

sound Simulate skin, flesh,

bone, fluids, etc… User needs and POIs Maintain ruggedness

• Create reluctance• Create difficulties• Minimize manpower
