Very proud that our technology is making a difference for Ukrainian clinical professionals and their patients.

Інститут серця МОЗ України 🏥 отримав унікальну систему MOVES SLC – єдину у світі портативну платформу підтримки життя, розроблену канадською компанією Thornhill Medical.

Цей апарат об'єднує в собі кілька систем: концентратор кисню, апарат штучної вентиляції легень, аспіратор та монітор життєвих показників.

Система забезпечує тривалу штучну вентиляцію легень під час транспортування вкрай важких пацієнтів, як військовослужбовців, так і цивільних на великі відстані.

Раніше потрібні були окремі системи та великі запаси кисню, а зараз – усе в одному компактному апараті, який сам виробляє кисень і працює від батареї🔋

Команда Інституту Серця вже пройшла стажування на цьому обладнанні – завідувач відділення інтенсивної терапії Ігор Кузьмич з колегами готові використовувати MOVES SLC для порятунку життів♥️

Дякуємо Unite With Ukraine, Ukrainian World Congress - Свiтовий Конґрес Українців та Maple Hope Foundation за цей подарунок🙌

Increasingly, the future of trauma care in military and/or civilian large-scale scenarios requires adaptable, interoperable and rapid response technologies and the framework to sustain readiness.
Canadian Armed Forces and Unity Health Toronto/ St. Michael's Hospital trauma expert Lt. Col. Andrew Beckett CD MD MSc DRCPSC FRCSC FACS and colleagues share valuable perspectives in a new Canadian Medical Association Journal article which examines the case for a robust, integrated dual-use approach to address gaps, build resilience and improve patient outcomes.

Key points A major armed conflict involving Canada or its North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies, including coalition ground combat with large-scale casualty repatriation to Canadian hospitals, could overwhelm Canada’s civilian health system well before it strains the country’s

How do you rapidly expand ICU-level care during a large-scale medical emergency?

A recent demonstration supporting a U.S. National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) pilot project showcased a compelling solution. Thornhill Medical’s MOVES® SLC™ was featured within a prototype modular surge facility designed to deploy quickly and capable of supporting up to 1,000 patients per day for as long as 100 days during large-scale medical or national security emergencies.

MOVES® SLC™ demonstrated the advantages of rapid set-up, oxygen- and power-independent mobile technology designed for space- and resource-constrained environments.

The project was an opportunity to highlight emerging capabilities including our multi-patient telemetry and centralized patient monitoring, which enable clinical teams to monitor multiple patients in real time from a central nursing station or even a remote location. While the telemetry solution is still pre-commercial, the results during the NDMS project are promising: improved visibility, more efficient workflows, and greater versatility for care teams operating in high-tempo surge conditions.

Collaborations like this are advancing next-generation critical care solutions for both military and civilian scenarios.

Large-scale combat operations, drone warfare, humanitarian disasters, and strained supply chains are reshaping how EU and NATO nations think about medical readiness for both military and civilian scenarios. How can leaders prepare for today's reality and tomorrow's risks?

Join us on March 12th for our expert-led webinar featuring Brigadier General (ret.) Dr. Stefan Kowitz:
𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐔 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐎 𝐏𝐫𝐞-𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬

A former Director of NATO's Centre of Excellence for Military Medicine (MILMED COE) and the Multinational Medical Coordination Center – Europe, Dr. Kowitz will draw on NATO and EU doctrine, frontline lessons from Ukraine, and real-world operational deployments to explore how integrated life-support systems like MOVES® SLC™ are strengthening pre-hospital medical capabilities across both military and civilian missions.

Gain actionable insights on:
→ Delivering rapid, reliable critical care and damage-control resuscitation in demanding battlefield environments;
→ Why dual-use, battle-proven technology is giving medical teams a decisive readiness advantage;
→ What today's operational demands mean for tomorrow's critical care challenges.

This is a can’t-miss webinar, designed for:
→ Military physicians, medics, nurses, and clinical leaders
→ Defense and government procurement and acquisition professionals
→ Medical device distributors and partners
→ Organizations supporting military, NATO, and humanitarian medical operations

🌍 Large-scale combat operations, drone warfare, humanitarian disasters, and strained supply chains are reshaping how EU and NATO nations think about medical readiness for both military and civilian scenarios.

Expanding on insights shared by Brig Gen (ret.) Dr. Stefan Kowitz at the recent International Conference on Disaster and (DiMiMed), our latest white paper explores how dual-use medical capabilities can deliver a
strategic advantage by strengthening military preparedness while reinforcing civilian resilience.

The paper draws on and doctrine, frontline lessons from , and real-world deployments in examining how MOVES® SLC™ supports damage control resuscitation,
prolonged casualty care, and evacuation across the full continuum of care.

For leaders, emergency health decision-makers, and policymakers focused on interoperability, sustainability, and rapid readiness, this paper offers practical insights into how a single, battle-proven system can serve both military and civilian missions, demonstrating:
• Why early, far-forward damage control resuscitation matters.
• How platform-independent design improves mobility and evacuation.
• The logistical and operational advantages for EU and NATO organizations.
