as many dedicated team members from both the military and civilian popula- tions. USAMRMC works to effectively manage its 11 subcommands throughout the world to provide medical solutions that protect,
treat, and optimize the
health and performance of warfighters. Partnering with leading academic, private industry and government organizations, USAMRMC leverages its capabilities to maximize its potential for fielding critical medical products quickly and assuredly.
CONCLUSION Since USAMRMC’s ultimate goal is to deliver solutions, both knowledge and materiel, to the warfighter, it is imperative that many of its dedicated scientists and logisticians develop into program managers with the acumen to share their knowledge with the rest of the life-cycle command.
Our acquisition workforce is excited about developing and delivering medi- cal products to benefit warfighters, and about discovering new ways to expedite the delivery of these items as much as possible. In support of
this,
USAMRMC places great emphasis on providing the resources and avenues necessary for its scientific and logistics professionals
to and encourages gain critical knowl-
edge in both acquisition and product management,
each
team member to progress professionally along his or her chosen career path. (See related article on Page 48.)
As this open, supportive environment
encourages free and progressive thought, the possibilities for advancements
in
the field of medical materiel acquisition remain endless.

ADVANCING THE STATE OF THE ART
USAISR, in collaboration with Flashback Technologies, is working to develop a new medical monitor that can help physicians and medical staff assess a patient’s condition. Much like a fuel gauge in a motor vehicle, the gauge of the Compensatory Reserve Index begins to show a loss in “fuel” well in advance of changes in blood oxygen or heart rate measured by the currently used pulse oximeter.
