Forward medicalisation is, for French medical service, the first link of wounded soldier all round chain, whose goal is the more precocity arrival in a military hospital on national field after has been done the necessary measures for the survival and prevention of sequelae during all this chain. This forward medicalisation is based on the experiences of anterior conflicts and modern medical technical evolution. It works around combat casualties care, declined in three competences levels. Under enemy fire, each soldier is capable of implementing first combat casualties care level. A second level corresponds for producing of rescue technical acts by specifically trained personals, until the arrival of a medical staff witch is most of the time a doctor and a nurse. This pair, trained at the third combat casualties care level, is able to apply forward reanimation acts and to prepare the evacuation of the wounded in direction to the first surgical field team.
