EVA Report – January 27th

  




 Crew 220 EVA Report 27JAN2020


EVA # 8


Author: Johannes Svensoy, MD


Purpose of EVA: Martian Medical training EVA


Start time: 1400


End time: 1600


Narrative: The morning was spent on medical lectures by Dr. Shawna and Dr. Svensoy at the MDRS Hab. The lectures on P-MARCH-P for first assessment of trauma patients and secondary survey that included full check of the patient. We also went through SAMPLE for patient history and METHANE for calling in the incident.


The crew members were well fed and hydrated leaving the airlock eager to test their skills on the simulated patient and on our medical manikin. Realistic training was conducted in near proximity of the MDRS Hab in the sunny and windy Martian terrain. Simulated exercises included broken ankle after fall, consciousness patient with neck injury after fall from a ladder, and crushed lower limbs after rover accident. The Golden Bubble pressurized medevac device invented by one of the crew members was used for transferring the patient to safety. The Golden Bubble pressurized medevac device can be used for suit breach and for doing medical procedures out in the Martian field.


At the end of the EVA crew members Morgan and Johannes went over to the MAU station on an Engineer EVA to secure the site because of heavy winds.


The crew members did well and expressed valuable learning points; they report being more prepared for taking care of patients if accidents would happen.


Destination: MDRS Station and proximity.


Coordinates (use UTM NAD27 CONUS): 4250050,518500


Participants: HabComm: Shawna (MDRS). EVA Crew: Johannes, Morgan, and Marufa.


Road(s) and routes per MDRS Map: MDRS proximity


Mode of travel: On foot.


Support Requested: No support requested during EVA.

Crew 220 (MDRS) Sol Summary 22Jan2020


Sol: 7


Summary Title: Soulful Sol


Author’s name: Connie Delisle


Mission Status: Marsvellously Nominal


Sol Activity Summary:


The day started with a joint briefing and breakfast between the two Crews after MAU Crew came over to the MDRS Hab. The nature of this Mission intentionally provides opportunity for joint EVAs and learning opportunities in order to observe and discuss the nature of small-larger group human factor interaction. Today’s morning activities included medical training on the METHANE procedure, additional drilling on the P-MARCH-P, and a training session on CRP and bagging (resuscitation). Crew members reported learning a great deal and appreciating the hands-on practice and drilling. Today’s activities with a smaller Crew followed the planned schedule and timing more closely than in previous days. In addition, the Crew reported being more relaxed and feeling less hurried between planned events.


Look Ahead Plan: Sol 8 includes a full schedule, starting at 07:00 for breakfast and MDRS-MAU Commander briefing on the day’s events. Following will be a Medical EVA near the MDRS Hab, serving as the initial field test of the “Golden Bubble.” This ground-breaking technology enabled innovation represents the culmination of several months of intense design work. The evening events will include: social science research (nutrition study, psycho-social study on willingness to go to Mars and a “Grand Rounds” technical presentation Sensory Illusion Cognitive Bias and False Memory from one of the Crew members who is a medical doctor.


Weather: Tonight, cloudy skies with a lowest temperature around -2°C, with a 40% chance of snow. The average highest temperature during the day until Saturday is 5°C, and the lowest during the night would be around -4°C.


Crew Physical Status: The Crew has been working hard and is somewhat fatigued. However, they were bolstered by the wonderful day on Mars.


EVA: One afternoon EVA was conducted, starting at MDRS to MAU Station, with a return to MDRS at 17:30.

Destination: MAU Station


Coordinates: 4250050,518500
