The basic training provided by the Endurance Coalition goes over the '''[https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=463939057 ACE]''' medical concepts strictly necessary for the average riflemen to play with the unit comfortably. This page will review certain concepts in more depth for deeper understanding.

Line 58:

ACE medical has 3 fluid variants {{Emdash}} plasma, blood, and saline. They all perform the same function, being to raise blood pressure and address blood loss. The variation chosen is preferential to the mission / scenario creator.

== ~~Advanced blood~~ loss ==

== Blood loss ==

A healthy and normal blood level is 6 liters. Severity is based on how many liters of blood have been lost.

Line 67:

* 3 liters is "''Lost a fatal amount of blood''"

Medics usually have fluids on them in variants of 250, 500, and 1000 milliliters. ~~This means~~ 1000 milliliters is 1 liter. An individual with a ''stable'' (not necessarily ''healthy'') blood level is an individual with 5 liters or more. The greater the loss of blood, the more fluids which are required to correct it.

An individual with a ''stable'' (not necessarily ''healthy'') blood level is an individual with 5 liters or more. The greater the loss of blood, the more fluids which are required to correct it.

The reason 3 liters is fatal is because, to stabilize, the medic would need to dispense 2000-3000 milliliters of blood into the patient {{Emdash}} this would ''catastrophically'' effect their carried supply of fluids. So much blood loss also has implications on heart rate and blood pressure, which may result in cardiac arrest, and thus a level of attention from the medic that likely cannot be spared in a war zone.
