- Description
- The Marine Corps Systems Command (MARCORSYSCOM), Family of Field Medical Equipment (FFME), is conducting a market survey to determine industry capabilities in providing a Portable Patient Transport Life Support System (PPTLSS). MARCORSYSCOM is also interested in reviewing possible design options, performance test & evaluation results, and material solutions for these systems. The PPTLSS will primarily be operated onboard Marine Corps aircraft. The PPTLSS shall be an integrated, portable, battery-powered device that will replace the existing ventilator, suction device, patient monitor, oxygen bottles and Special Medical Emergency Evacuation Device (SMEED) bracket used in the En Route Care System. The device is an oxygen concentrator unit that also provides mechanical ventilation support via a secure airway to critically injured/ill, but stabilized, casualties during transport aboard Marine Corps aircraft. PPTLSS will be a portable device with integrated monitoring of respiratory mechanics, arterial oxygen saturation via pulse oximetry (SpO2) and end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2). Data from the sensors shall provide context-sensitive direction to the care provider or enable control of oxygenation and ventilation. Data regarding the operation of the system and physiologic sensors will be continuously displayed via the unit's operator interface. An internal compressor and battery shall provide for continuous autonomous operation. Key capabilities and goals of the PPTLSS will be: to eliminate compressed oxygen bottles from Marine Corps aircraft; oxygen concentration; mechanical ventilation; physiological monitoring; one-man portability; battery powered. For information about Family of Field Medical Equipment systems see the MARCORSYSCOM website at http://www.marcorsyscom.usmc.mil/sites/cse/ Interested firms should submit capabilities and experience descriptions, design approaches, design concepts and any other relevant information to MARCORSYSCOM.
