PFC Podcast: ICRC Wound Care

PFC Podcast: ICRC Wound Care

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Rick Kelly, a retired 18 Delta Special Forces medic, shares insights into the unique challenges faced by Special Forces medics in austere environments. He discusses the critical role these medics play in providing life-saving surgical procedures in areas lacking medical infrastructure, emphasizing the importance of understanding their training and operational constraints. Kelly highlights the evolution of medical practices within Special Forces, particularly the adoption of methods from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to improve patient outcomes in combat situations.


Kelly elaborates on the specific surgical techniques taught to Special Forces medics, including wound excision, closure, and amputation, all tailored to the limited resources available in the field. He contrasts these practices with conventional medical approaches, underscoring the necessity for adaptability and efficiency in high-pressure environments. The episode concludes with a call for healthcare providers to better understand the realities of austere medicine, enabling them to support Special Forces medics more effectively.


Understanding austere medicine is crucial for effective healthcare delivery.

The ICRC's methods have significantly influenced Special Forces medical training.

Infection rates can be drastically reduced with proper wound management.
