- Casualty evacuation, also known as CASEVAC or by the callsign Dustoff or colloquially Dust Off, is a military term for the emergency patient evacuation of casualties from a combat zone. Casevac can be done by both ground and air. "DUSTOFF" is the callsign specific to U.S. Army Air Ambulance units. CASEVACs by air today are almost exclusively done by helicopter, a practice begun on a small scale toward the end of World War II; before that, STOL aircraft, such as the Fieseler Fi 156 or Piper J-3 were used.

- Casualty evacuation, also known as CASEVAC or by the callsign Dustoff or colloquially Dust Off, is a military term for the emergency patient evacuation of casualties from a combat zone. Casevac can be done by both ground and air. "DUSTOFF" is the callsign specific to U.S. Army Air Ambulance units. CASEVACs by air today are almost exclusively done by helicopter, a practice begun on a small scale toward the end of World War II; before that, STOL aircraft, such as the Fieseler Fi 156 or Piper J-3 were used. The primary difference between a CASEVAC and a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) is that a MEDEVAC uses a standardized and dedicated vehicle providing en route care, while a CASEVAC uses non-standardized and non-dedicated vehicles that may or may not provide en route care. CASEVACs are commonly referred to as "a lift/flight of opportunity". If a corpsman/medic on the ground calls for a CASEVAC, the closest available unit with space could be called to assist, regardless of its medical capabilities. This could include U.S. Marine Corps aircraft such as the MV-22 Osprey, U.S. Navy SH-60 Seahawk helicopters, or CH-46 Sea Knight helicopters. The guiding principle in a CASEVAC is to transport casualties that are in dire need for evacuation from the battlefield and do not have time to wait on a MEDEVAC. MEDEVAC aircraft and ground transport are mandated by the Geneva Convention to be unarmed and well marked. Firing on "clearly marked and identified" MEDEVAC vehicles would be considered a war crime under Article II of the Geneva Convention, in the same sense as firing on a hospital ship would be a war crime. CASEVAC transport are allowed to be armed since they are normally used for other purposes but carry no penalties for engagement by hostile forces. "Dust Off" was the tactical call sign for medical evacuation missions first used in 1963 by Major Lloyd E. Spencer, Commander of the U.S. Army 57th Medical Detachment (Helicopter Ambulance). It became famous after an article by Peter Arnett described the death of his successor in command, Major Charles L. Kelly, on 1 July 1964 and his dying words, "When I Have Your Wounded." The name was used by all Army medical evacuation units except one in the remainder of the war and continues to be used today by Army medical evacuation units. Typically air ambulances transport wounded soldiers categorized as "urgent" patients from point of injury to a medical facility within an hour of soldier(s) being wounded. Flying into an active landing zone to pick up wounded was a dangerous job. Peter Dorland and James Nanney wrote in Dust Off: Army Aeromedical Evacuation in Vietnam, "... slightly more a third of the aviators became casualties in their work, and the crew chiefs and medical corpsmen who accompanied them suffered similarly. The danger of their work was further borne out by the high rate of air ambulance loss to hostile fire: 3.3 times that of all other forms of helicopter missions in the Vietnam War." All members of the US Armed Forces today are trained in some form of basic first aid. While lacking advanced life saving equipment and medical personnel in regular vehicles, all personnel today enter the combat zone with an Improved First Aid Kit (IFAK) on their equipment. The IFAK has basic medical supplies such as bandages, a tourniquet, and QuikClot gauze. Most units have stretchers and burn blankets in their vehicles. In addition each unit is staffed by a corpsman or medic. These professionals are trained in Tactical Combat Casualty Care. The U.S. military has worked to ensure dedicated MEDEVAC platforms with trained medical personnel are available in the event of a casualty. This has, in part, led to a 90.6% casualty survival rate (numbers from operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, 2006), compared to 80.9% in World War II. In Australian military terminology, a CASEVAC refers to the evacuation of a small number of troops, usually just one. (en)
- Casualty evacuation (ofta använd akronym: Casevac) är ett militärt begrepp som bl.a. beskriver vilken medicinsk förmåga samt med vilka medel sjukvårdstransporten utförs. Begreppet används på engelska även inom svensk militär. Transporten från skadeplats till närmaste plats för kvalificerad sjukvård görs med hjälp av de fordon som finns tillgängliga vid skadetillfället och med liten eller ingen sjukvårdsresurs. Casevac är inget som eftersträvas, men utförs vid de tillfällen man inte hinner vänta på att kvalificerad sjukvård anländer (till exempel Medevac) eller då den inte kan nå fram till exempel på grund av striderna. Svenska försvarsmaktens definition är: evakuering av skadade eller sjuka med vilket fordon som helst inom förbandens organisation och utan sjukvårdspersonal. (sv)
- Медична евакуація — комплекс заходів спрямований на щадне транспортування хворого, постраждалого чи пораненого у відповідний медичний заклад чи медичний пункт, де може бути надано адекватну медичну допомогу, чи прийнято рішення про подальше транспортування у інший медичний заклад. У мирний час цю функцію виконує екстрена медична допомога. Також існує поняття військової медичної евакуації у військовій справі (Медична евакуація поранених тощо) — комплекс заходів з транспортування поранених й хворих, які потребують лікування, з районів ведення бойових дій військ (або з осередків масового ураження, що виникли в тилу військ) на всі наступні етапи медичної евакуації, до , розташованих, як на самому театрі воєнних дій (на більшому або меншому видаленні від лінії фронту), так і за його межами в тилу країни. Медична евакуація є одним з найважливіших елементів системи . (uk)
