Lesser Antilles Medical Assistance Team members conduct an ultrasound-guided nerve block on a patient during the LAMAT mission at Owen King European Union Hospital in Castries, Saint Lucia, March 5, 2025. The nerve block procedure blocks pain from reaching specific nerves and can speed recovery and reduce need for post-surgery pain medication. LAMAT fosters collaboration between U.S. and host nation medical teams to facilitate knowledge sharing and skills transfer, strengthening the host nation's own healthcare capabilities.
