Past event: MEDEVAC 2013 Conference

Delivering a swift and effective future medical evacuation capability

Medical Forces now have the greatest medical facilities in history at their disposal, however severe challenges remain in conducting effective combat trauma care for front line forces and ensuring injured military and civilian personnel are swiftly and safely evacuated to role 3 facilities for further care. With most battlefield deaths occurring within the first 10 minutes of wounding, it is imperative that casualties are evacuated as quickly and effectively as possible to and between medical facilities.

Following last year’s highly successful event, the 2nd Annual MEDEVAC summit will offer a holistic approach to the challenges surrounding forward, tactic and strategic MEDEVAC with military medical officers outlining their future requirements and current challenges surrounding medical evacuation and in-theatre care such as the standardisation of equipment, the interoperability of medical teams and the modernisation of medical equipment and medical evacuation platforms.

The 2nd Annual MEDEVAC summit, in partnership with European Air Group, is taking place from 15 – 17 October 2013 in London.


Key benefits of attending:

  • Learn from the world's leading medical evacuation practitioners as to how they are advancing their forward, tactical and strategic evacuation capabilities
  • Gain an unparalleled insight into how challenges such as standardisation and interoperability are being confronted by air, land and military medical forces
  • Strengthen your knowledge of how medical companies are developing their technologies to better aid future medical evacuation missions in harsh operating environments
