During this module, we will introduce the techniques for identifying and controlling massive hemorrhage. The practical application of this information and the techniques in the form of skills stations and trauma lanes will take place throughout the remainder of the course and will be evaluated at the end of the course during your final assessment.

As Combat Paramedics/Providers (CPP), you are often one of the first lines of medical providers to receive the casualty and initiate more advanced treatments. It is important that you also understand the roles and capabilities of the nonmedical personnel that may be providing care/assisting in care in the prehospital environment.
