In modern combat, the scale and modalities of warfare have significantly altered, leading to changes in the injury patterns, techniques, and tactics for trauma management. From that practical requirement, the initial emergency and treatment of penetrating chest trauma in combat also need to be updated and changed regarding the attitude, priority order of treatment in accordance with combat conditions, and essential equipment. One of the advanced models, which has proven its superiority on the battlefield, is the Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) model.This article provides an overview and update on some issues of TCCC on the initial emergency of penetrating chest trauma in combat; thereby, offering recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of initial emergency care for penetrating chest wounds under field conditions.
