Stay Sharp on TEMS with the Journal of Special Operations Medicine W hen you want information on a subject, you seek out the experts. There's no name more trusted for cutting-edge information on tactical EMS (TEMS) than the Journal of Special Operations Medicine (JSOM). The JSOM is the only academic, peer-reviewed medical journal dedicated to tactical casualty care and operational medicine. It is published quarterly in both print and digital versions. The mission of the JSOM is to provide operational and tactical medical personnel a professional forum to discuss their unconventional brand of medicine, says W. Patrick Donihoo, NREMT-P, FP-C, MSG, U.S. Army (Ret.), and advertising representative/subscription outreach coordinator for the JSOM. Donihoo notes the JSOM is the only published venue that brings military SOF, civilian tactical EMS, federal Depart- ment of Justice agencies with tactical medical assets, and those with an interest in prehospital emergency medicine in an austere environment together in one forum. "There is much overlap in areas of concern between the aforementioned populations, and the numerous medical lessons learned by MIL SOF—and DoD in general—since 2001 are of benefit to the TEMS community. Likewise, I think there is much to be learned by MIL SOF from its federal and civil counterparts. It is this cross-pollination that is so valuable and you can't find it anywhere else. Finally, the JSOM is the only publication that in addition to the TCCC guidelines publishes the Committee for Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (C-TECC) and the National TEMS Counsil quarterly updates." Case reports such as "Another Civilian Life Saved by Law Enforcement-Applied Tourni- quets" and "Abdominal Aortic and Junctional Tourniquet Controls Hemorrhage from a Gun- shot Wound of the Left Groin" are examples of the kind of cutting-edge coverage the JSOM provides its readers, Donihoo says. "In addition to feature articles, we have an ongoing series titled Law Enforcement and Tactical Medicine written by leaders in DoJ/ TEMS medical training. The articles relay information that SO medical personnel can implement in real time to provide expert care and treatment." Visit www.jsomonline.org.
