The primary section of Tactical Fight Casualty Care (TCCC) is Care Below Fireplace (CUF). Care Below Fireplace is medical consideration offered by the primary responder or combatant to reach on the scene of harm throughout an in-progress firefight.
Usually, in a CUF scenario, obtainable medical gear is proscribed to that carried by the casualty in his or her particular person first-aid package (IFAK) or by the medical supplier in his or her help bag.
Typically, we don’t carry out airway administration in Care Below Fireplace. This isn’t field-hospital trauma care you’re delivering. Nonetheless, we will nonetheless do a sloppy A (from the M.A.R.C.H. algorithm) as we roll our casualty onto his abdomen.
Rolling him onto his abdomen helps forestall the casualty’s tongue or blood from suffocating him.
