If a casualty is wounded, in severe pain, and unable to fight, what should be done?

Administering the Casualty Wound Med Protocol (CWMP) and referring to a medic quickly is the most appropriate response for a casualty who is wounded, experiencing severe pain, and unable to fight. The CWMP is designed to manage the immediate needs of a casualty effectively, addressing both life-threatening conditions and significant pain. This approach ensures that the casualty receives timely and appropriate treatment while also taking into account their inability to continue combat operations.

Taking swift action by applying the CWMP not only helps in stabilizing the casualty but also facilitates a quicker handover to a medic who can provide advanced care. This is essential in situations where every moment counts, and addressing pain is critical to prevent further complications and enhance the casualty’s likelihood of survival.

Other choices may seem relevant but do not prioritize the comprehensive care that the CWMP offers in conjunction with timely referral to a medic. Continuing to provide care or focusing solely on pain medications without following structured protocols fails to address the full scope of the casualty's needs. Evacuating without treatment neglects the initial management steps that could stabilize the casualty and improve their chances for recovery. Thus, option A is the most effective course of action to ensure optimal care is delivered.
