title: [Deployment surgery from the viewpoint of the German Red Cross].
abstract: The German military coinages "deployment medicine" and "deployment surgery" are unusual within the Red Cross Germany (DRK). For its (surgical) deployments, the DRK complies exclusively with the principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. The mobile surgical unit of the DRK's rapid module system is an intentionally "low-tech" medical/surgical unit that also does without any dispensable medical conveniences. For its purposes and objectives it is optimally equipped, and enables the DRK to provide prompt and flexible regionally adjusted relief that is compatible with the Red Cross worldwide.
