The many contributions of physicians serving in the military to medicine and, vascular traua in particular, will be the focus of the Thursday morning session titled “Tribute To Our Military and Service Physicians Everywhere; New Developments in Vascular Trauma.”
“An understanding of the history of the American military is crucial for the attendees to comprehend the sacrifices, even the ultimate sacrifice, that our men and women in uniform inherently undergo in the service of their country,” said co-moderator Dr. Wayne F. Yakes, director of the Yakes Vascular Malformation Center.
Dr. Yakes will present a session titled “The Naval Battle at Guadalcanal and What It Meant to the Marines Fighting There and to the U.S. Victory in the Pacific.” Dr. Yakes, said “This lecture on the crippling burdens endured successfully by the U.S. Navy and the Marine Corps at Guadalcanal, a critical turning point of the Pacific War, once again demonstrates the prowess and the ‘failure is not an option’ mentality of our brave service men and women.”
Dr. Todd E. Rasmussen, who holds the rank of Colonel in the United States Air Force at F. Edward Hebert School of Medicine and associate dean of research at the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences, will cover two topics. He will discuss highlights from the recent Endovascula,r and Hybrid Trauma and Bleeding Management Symposium and the impact of wartime trauma practice on preparation for the next terror attack.
An update on the use of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) for control of bleeding will be led by Dr. Joseph J. DuBose, associate professor surgery at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences and director of the USAF BaltimoreC-STARS (Center for the Sustainment of Trauma and Readiness Skills), University of Maryland R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center. Finally, Dr. Michael Engelhardt, head of the department of vascular and endovascular surgery at the Military Hospital in Ulm in Germany, will continue the discussion of REBOA and its use in Germany in military and civilian populations.
“Military medicine is extreme in its clinical demands due to the myriad of injuries that can occur in combat but are rarely seen in civilian practice. The requirements of military physician training consitute a high bar but can filter down into surgical practices at major Level I/II trauma centers,” said Dr. Yakes.
