Support Options and Resources

PFC Working Group works to develop a forum for discussion, education and training, and suggests medical efforts to better prepare Special Operations Forces.
Founded in 1987, the Special Operations Medical Association (SOMA) is the only medical association in the world that brings together the unique blend of pre-hospital, tactical, wilderness, austere, disaster and deployed medicine.
The mission of the Joint Trauma System (JTS) is to improve trauma readiness and outcomes through evidence-driven performance improvement.
MISSION: To develop and implement best practices for prehospital care through to the completion of the acute phase of hemorrhagic shock resuscitation.
PJ MED is the home for Pararescue Medicine. It complements the podcast PJ MEDCAST and provides more information and news for training and SA.
Deployed Medicine is a platform used by the Defense Health Agency to trial new innovative learning models aimed at improving readiness and performance of deployed military medical personnel.

Research and Development

End-user driven. Impact-Focused. Proudly Impatient.

At RES, we approach research and development with the same clarity and urgency demanded in Special Operations medicine. Our programs are driven by a network of Special Operations physicians, medics, and end users who have no patience for academic vanity projects or circular funding pursuits. We reject the traditional model of research for research’s sake—projects designed to secure the next grant rather than deliver tangible outcomes. Instead, we leverage real experts, hyper-realistic environments and scenario-based validation, and direct end-user feedback to ensure every effort has a defined goal and endpoint: Built for the warfighters-not white papers. If it doesn’t solve a real problem, in a real timeline, driven by a true need—it doesn’t belong in our portfolio.

TBI Navigator, a mobile app designed to help medical teams assess and manage traumatic brain injuries (TBI) in prehospital and/or prolonged care environments. This app guides users through established TBI protocols (GCS, TMACE, and more), generating reports that can be shared in real time. This work was made possible through extensive collaboration with Ragged Edge Solutions, Prolonged Field Care Collective, Penn Medicine, University of Pennsylvania Health System, the Combat Casualty Care Research Program (CCCRP), and MTEC | Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium.
Ragged Edge Solutions (RES) collaborates with KeriCure Medical to evaluate and support integrating advanced wound care products into military medical training. RES provides end-user feedback via quarterly survey reports and distributes educational materials to field medics. This partnership also includes a grant to enhance educational delivery and student engagement through incentive-based product surveys. The collaboration supports innovation in point-of-injury care and real-world readiness.
Ragged Edge Solutions (RES) has established a strategic partnership with East Carolina University’s Brody School of Medicine and ECU Health to advance military medical training. This collaboration is focused on improving military readiness and reducing preventable battlefield deaths. The partnership includes joint research into military-university training models and Mil-Civ joint training and education. This alliance enhances RES’s role in setting national standards for prolonged field care.
Ragged Edge Solutions (RES) supported RTI International, Geneva Foundation, and the NC Center for Optimizing Military Performance (NC-COMP) in partnership with USAMMDA’s Warfighter Readiness, Performance, and Brain Health PMO. RES facilitated an end-user evaluation event focused on field-ready technologies designed to assess traumatic brain injury (TBI) in deployed environments. This effort provided operational insight from experienced users to inform the development and deployment of next-generation TBI assessment tools.
RES is honored to support the Telemedicine & Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC) as a designated data collection site contributing to the Autodoc Project. RES provides high-fidelity, hyper-realistic medical simulation environments that enable advanced research in autonomous casualty care and validating emerging technologies under operationally relevant conditions.
