When we talk about military medicine, most people think of battlefield trauma care, surgical equipment, or treatments that require highly trained medical professionals. But what if the soldiers themselves — out in the field, far from any medical facility — could access consumer-grade medical devices that improve their well-being without needing a doctor on-site? That’s exactly the opportunity I see for Health Helper. While military developments often drive medical innovation and advancements, we’re turning that model on its head. Our award-winning consumer medical devices designed for everyday people can be easily adapted for soldiers in the field, offering them quick, effective solutions. Take our Bite Helper® - itch neutralizer, for example. Our new version of the Bite Helper is a keychain-sized device that soldiers can use on the go. Instead of waiting for a medic to address insect bites, a soldier can use a small, easy-to-carry device that delivers instant relief and reduces the chance of getting an infection. Beyond this, we’re developing a suite of compact, tech-driven devices that address common issues soldiers face: muscle strain, joint pain, and stress management. Our goal is to equip every soldier with a personal Health Helper first-aid kit — a set of devices that enhance performance, aid recovery, and provide immediate care, all without requiring specialized training. This is an area of military healthcare that’s still developing. With ongoing global conflicts, there is a growing need for solutions that can be used by soldiers themselves, wherever they are deployed. We’re currently working with military doctors to develop and test these devices in real-world conditions. #healthhelper #miltech #militatyhealthcare #medicaldevices #medtech

This is a long awaited / much needed fix but the reality is that it's also just allowing trainees who were already coming through the system to take the jobs they've trained for. They were already in the system and working the jobs - just not being paid for or given the right titles. Maybe a few were sitting out of work but it's doubtful that they wouldn't have carried on as GPST grades or worked as locums in the system in some way. I'd see this initial step as a retention scheme rather than a recruitment scheme. It'll have a positive impact and should be welcomed. It won't be the silver bullet to reduce waiting times for a GP appointment though. Increasing university places and GP training slots is the only long term solution. This should be accompanied by a workable program of international and permanent recruitment for the short to medium term. The previous government pledged to recruit 6,000 more GPs in 2019 with a procurement exercise launched to promote international recruitment - however it failed to give practices sponsorship licenses and didn't address the fact that it's impossible to qualify without already working in the NHS. Workarounds for this red tape would really be beneficial to international GP recruitment.
NEW: We're taking action with extra funding to remove red tape so surgeries can recruit the doctors they need. ◉ Helping recruit more than 1,000 newly-qualified GPs. ◉ Helping bring back the family doctor. ◉ Helping fix the broken NHS. Details: https://lnkd.in/eBi4kJWU

🔍 Revolutionizing Military Healthcare with Ultrasound Tissue Characterization (UTC) 💪 Tendon injuries like Achilles tendinopathy are a common challenge for military personnel, often impacting operational readiness and long-term health. With Ultrasound Tissue Characterization (UTC), we are transforming the way tendon injuries are diagnosed and managed in military settings. 🏥 Why is UTC a game-changer for military healthcare? ✅ Accurate tendon diagnostics: UTC provides detailed 3D imaging and quantifies tendon health, enabling healthcare professionals to assess injury severity and create targeted treatment plans. ✅ Early detection and prevention: UTC can detect subclinical tendon degradation before symptoms appear, allowing for proactive injury prevention and reducing the risk of recurrence. ✅ Monitoring recovery: Regular UTC scans help track recovery progress, ensuring that rehabilitation strategies can be adjusted in real-time for the best possible outcomes. A study on military personnel from Marc Paantjens on recovering from Achilles tendinopathy showed that UTC's ability to measure aligned fibrillar structure was key in predicting injury recurrence. This data empowers healthcare providers to implement more effective, individualized treatment plans for military personnel. 👩⚕️👨⚕️ Military healthcare professionals—how are you leveraging the latest imaging technologies to keep your teams in peak physical condition? Let's talk about how UTC can enhance your approach to injury management.

⏱️ Five minutes can feel like a lifetime when you’re watching someone bleed out. As a former flight surgeon and ICU specialist, I’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact of severe hemorrhage. The FDA’s recent approval of Traumagel, an algae-derived gel that stops bleeding in seconds, could be a game-changer. ⚡️ Unlike current treatments that require manual pressure and take minutes to work, Traumagel is advertised to work almost instantly. This innovation could dramatically reduce preventable deaths from severe injuries – particularly on the battlefield, where an estimated 91% of fatalities are due to hemorrhage. How do innovations like this change the way you think about emergency care? #IndustryInsights #EmergencyCare #HealthcareInnovation Photo: medical readiness training exercise with a moulage patient (luckily)

Not, ICA itself. Tybe C: fistula of only #external_carotid_artery branches and cavernous sinus. ICA or its branches are not involved. Type D: our case: Branches of both Internal and external carotid artery are involved Thanks our great ICU, anesthesia and cath lab team at #American_Hospital_Dubai

Flosonics Medical and Lovell Partner to Increase VA, MHS, IHS Access to World’s First Wearable Doppler Ultrasound for Critical Care Safety Pensacola, FL, November 13, 2024 – In the spirit of honoring our nation’s military heroes this Veterans Day week, Lovell® Government Services and Flosonics Medical, a leader in wearable medical ultrasound and the creator of FloPatch®, announced they have partnered to serve federal healthcare systems such as the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), the Military Health System (MHS), and the Indian Health Service (IHS). Lovell Government Services will serve as Flosonics’ Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) vendor to serve these customers through federal contracting systems. FloPatch is the world’s first wearable Doppler ultrasound that enables real-time blood-flow assessments at the point of care to help guide resuscitation in critically ill patients including those with sepsis and septic shock, the third-leading cause of death in US hospitals. The FDA-approved hands-free FloPatch is a small device that adheres to a patient’s neck over the carotid artery to capture real-time blood flow data for each heartbeat. Advanced analytics break down each heartbeat into critical health metrics that are wirelessly transmitted to a secure iOS app.
