inflatable, portable surge capacity unit. Designed to supplement an

existing hospital in the case of an emergency, this civilian portable

surge capacity unit will be used exclusively for emergency needs such

as: mass casualty events, quarantining patients with an infectious agent

or communicable disease, bioterrorism or terrorist attack or a pandemic

flu outbreak, an issue recently gaining public and medical community

attention.

At the 2007 Annual Trauma Conference, don't miss the opportunity to see

the portable, inflatable surge capacity unit in person!
