Its simplicity, rapid deployment, and effectiveness in high-pressure situations align perfectly with the needs of military groups around the world. This NSN number is a crucial step in bringing our technology to the forefront of military trauma care."
Front Line will be participating in the upcoming OpMed 2024 Conference in San Antonio, Texas, on March 25-26.
