MOVES® SLC™

Put Tomorrow’s Lifesaving Capabilities in Your Hands. Today.

Military, humanitarian and emergency medical units are modernizing for large scale combat operations (LSCO), multi-domain operations (MDO), disaster relief, mass casualty and other emergency scenarios.

The Challenge

These environments can be austere, hard to reach, overwhelmed by the volume of casualties, challenged by extended hold times in ill equipped places of opportunity, isolated by interrupted supply chain, facing the tyranny of distance when evacuating in vehicles of opportunity – in any combination.

Meeting the Challenge

Medical units need to be agile, mobile and self-sufficient. And they must be supported by technology that is smaller, lighter, more durable, intuitive, easy to maintain that brings critical care capabilities as close to the centre of need as possible.

MOVES® SLC™ is ready for these challenges - today.

MOVES® SLC™ is a micro-integrated, mission-ready, portable life support system for complex domains, to modernize casualty damage control, prolonged casualty care and evacuation.

Examples of MOVES® SLC™ in Action Since 2017

As presented on YouTube, “Combat medics. Death will wait” tells the story of the unique military medical unit of the Ukraine Special Operations Forces “Alpha” (SOF “A”), where the surgeons of the special SSU unit heroically save lives of the Ukrainian defense fighters every day.

Chapter 8: Life or death in Iraq: working in a special operations surgical team.

“To remain mobile, the equipment must of course be as light as possible and compact as possible … It must also all be easy to transport. The equipment must be able to be set up and taken down quickly ... A nice example of these is the MOVES®. A device that produces oxygen, breathes, performs monitoring, has suction and on which accessories can still be mounted. An all-in-one product, such as a smartphone, that can handle multitasking. Thanks to this device we can use a whole range of other devices.”

“It will be important to have made-in-Canada solutions. And I am incredibly, incredibly proud of Canadian companies … who are stepping up and saying we want to help.”

USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69) Carrier Strike Group first to deploy with the Navy’s newest medical capability

MOVES® SLC™ deployed as part of the first En-Route Care System (ERCS) aboard U.S. Navy’s Eisenhower Strike Group (IKECSG)

Deployed on October 14, 2023, the ERCS allows the U.S. Navy to evacuate critically ill patients while maintaining full medical capabilities back on the ship. As a component within the ERCS, MOVES® SLC™ enables expanded care capabilities advanced technology that is smaller, lighter, more durable, flexible, easy to maintain, and less reliant on supply chain.

Kyle Rowland, a critical care nurse assigned to Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command (NMRTC) Camp Lejeune, and Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class Bradley Christian, a search and rescue technician assigned to NMRTC Patuxent River, as Cmdr. David Goodrich, the lead research and development of naval expeditionary medical platforms assigned to U.S. Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, observes at Naval Medical Readiness Logistics Command. Rowland and Christian are a part of a 2-person team with the En-Route Care System (ERCS), one of the Navy’s newest medical capabilities that will deploy for the first time with the Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group in order to meet the demands of maritime operations in a distributed environment.
