This week, Aebhric O&#39;Kelly speaks with Jason Jarvis, a former Special Forces medic and current PhD student, about his experiences in military medicine, the evolution of prolonged field care, and the development of the &#39;SHEEP VOMIT&#39; mnemonic for patient care in austere environments. They discuss the importance of nursing care, the practical applications of medical knowledge in the field, and the challenges medical practitioners face in remote settings. This conversation delves into critical aspects of patient care, particularly in prolonged field care settings. It emphasises the importance of managing pressure points, understanding vital signs, monitoring core temperature, maintaining oral hygiene, preventing DVT, and ensuring proper input and output monitoring. The discussion also highlights the significance of turning, coughing, and deep breathing for patient recovery, culminating in the legacy of the &#39;sheep vomit&#39; concept in medical training.TakeawaysJason Jarvis has a master&#39;s in infectious disease and is pursuing a PhD.Military experiences shaped his interest in tropical medicine.Prolonged field care is a systematic approach to patient care in remote settings.The &#39;SHEEP VOMIT&#39; mnemonic was developed to aid in prolonged field care.Skin protection is crucial in austere environments.Hypothermia prevention is a key focus in field care.Patient mobility and exercises are essential for recovery.Checklists help ensure comprehensive patient care.The evolution of medical mnemonics reflects advancements in field medicine.
