## Patient Movement Items

***After this session, participants should be able to give a brief definition of PMI, understand the value of exchange of in-kind equipment, be able to easily identify PMI equipment, and know who to call for asset return.***

## Patient Movement Items

***Medical equipment and supplies required to support the patient during evacuation***
***The purpose of the PMI system is to support patients in-transit, to exchange in-kind PMIs without degrading medical capabilities, and to provide prompt recycling of PMIs***
***The handling and return of equipment to the originating theater through the evacuation system is the responsibility of the logistics function***
***The originating Medical Treatment Facility is responsible for notifying the Patient Movement Requirements Center if the patient needs any special medical equipment for transport***

**Patient Movement Items**

**Notes:**
Specialized patient equipment will be used while the patient is in transit.  Once the patient is at the Medical Treatment Facility for definitive care, this equipment should be returned to the original departure site.
The mission of the PMI system is to support patients in-transit, to exchange in-kind PMI without degrading medical capabilities and to provide prompt recycling of PMI.

**Patient Movement Items**

**Notes:**
With the transport picture in mind, the flow of USAF PMI begins with a regulated patient at the ASF/MASF interface.  As the materiel moves through the system, the goal is timely recycling.

The loop from ASF/MASF to CONUS MTF to CONUS PMI Center  and back to the OCONUS PMI Center is 8 days.  This has been blessed by AMC transporters as long as the proper priority is noted for the shipments.  Recycling longer than 8 days dramatically increases the USAF PMI requirement.
