According to the report, Ukraine is looking to bolster its combat medical capabilities with new technologies aimed at keeping wounded soldiers alive during high-intensity operations. It said that the innovations were showcased at the Joint NATO-Ukraine Analysis, Training, and Education Center (JATEC) in Poland, highlighting their potential role in frontline care.
The report stated that the first system is an artificial kidney that lets medics perform blood-cleaning treatment in the field and prevent organ failure before evacuation. It replicates critical dialysis functions in austere conditions, giving medics a portable way to deliver hospital-level care directly on the frontline.
The report also stated that alongside it, there is a compact infusion device, called a fuser, that acts as a mini-intravenous that can be attached to a wounded soldier and administer medication continuously. A remote monitoring system ties it all together, giving medics real-time vital sign data so they can respond immediately if a soldier’s condition deteriorates.
Colonel Valeriy Vyshnivskyi, Director of Implementation at JATEC, said that to put it simply, this is a backpack that can replace the capabilities of an entire hospital.
The report added that these developments mark a new phase in Ukraine and NATO’s push to modernize battlefield casualty care and put medical tools exactly where they are needed.
