New TCCC Simulators by STOPS Medical – now part of 3B Scientific!
Strategic Operations, Inc. (STOPS) was founded in 2002 by Hollywood producer Stu Segall, who leveraged his background in film and television to transform tactical training through immersive, Hyper-Realistic® simulations. By incorporating Hollywood-style special effects, detailed set designs, and skilled role players, STOPS created lifelike environments for military, law enforcement, and medical personnel to train under realistic conditions. The company is known for its innovative approach to readiness training, including the development of advanced tools like the human-worn surgical Cut Suit, which has set a new standard in experiential learning.Here are just a few of STOPS’ groundbreaking simulation products:
The 6-in-1 Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) Trainer is an advanced training tool designed to provide medical personnel with a highly realistic and versatile simulation experience. Featuring a Hyper-Realistic® male head and upper torso, this trainer closely mimics human anatomy, including a skeletal structure that supports user-repairable body skin, neck skins, tracheas, and replaceable intraosseous training pucks.
The TCCC Trainer enhances hands-on learning, ensuring that trainees develop the skills necessary for effective combat casualty care.
Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) Cut Suit – Realistic Trauma Training
The TCCC Cut Suit is specifically designed for Point of Injury (POI) trauma training, allowing medical providers to treat the three leading causes of preventable deaths in casualty events:
This wearable simulator is built for high-intensity, hands-on training, enabling real-time treatment on a live human casualty. Its streamlined design enhances realism, and with customizable, user-repairable components, the TCCC Cut Suit minimizes long-term costs while maximizing training effectiveness and is a particularly valuable training aid at mass casualty events
TAMK Wearable Wounds – Bringing Injuries to Life
The TCCC Advanced Moulage Kit (TAMK) provides lifelike tactile and visual feedback, making injuries appear as realistic as possible in any training environment. These three-dimensional, anatomically accurate wounds enhance clinical presentations and support hands-on medical interventions. Whether worn by a live participant or placed on a manikin, TAMK elevates realism in trauma training, battlefield care, and emergency response simulations.
OS3– Advanced Surgical Simulation
Designed by surgeons, for surgeons, to teach surgeons, the Open Surgical Simulation System (OS3) bring unmatched realism to surgical training. Advanced Surgical Skills Packages (ASSPs) are dropped into the OS3 system, replicating a wide range of trauma and pathology scenarios. So realistic that participants willingly suspend disbelief, this system allows trainees to practice critical procedures, take training timeouts for instruction, and restart simulations—a level of flexibility impossible in real-life surgery.
STOPS Medical – A 3B Scientific Company
Since 2024, STOPS Medical is a 3B Scientific company. With STOPS now part of 3B Scientific, the possibilities for advanced medical training are greater than ever. Whether you’re preparing for battlefield medicine, emergency response, or trauma surgery, STOPS’ Hyper-Realistic® training tools will take your simulations to the next level.
