Today, medical simulators such as medical mannequins play an essential role in training combat medics, doctors, nurses, and other military medical personnel. The more realistic those medical simulators are, the more effectively the trained personnel can act in the real situations. To be fully useful in such critical training, however, medical simulators need to overcome the tradeoff between fideli ...

The CBC Analyzer Phase II Enhancement effort will be to optimize, test, and package the prototype. The advancement of the microfluidic cartridge performance will incorporate cell separation techniques within the current microfluidic cartridge design. This will be based on Lynntech’s preliminary work with blood separation, where a novel blood component separator was developed which uses a centerl ...

The CONOPS for the Expeditionary Medical Support System (EMEDS) is based on practical effectiveness, speed, and efficiency. Key among the tools required by the Air Mobility Command and the Air Combat Command, which are two of the major commands that are part of the United Air Force is a multi-channel intravenous infusion pump capable of delivering fluids that meets the safe-to-fly criteria for all ...

Development of Augmented Reality (AR) training tools for combat casualty care with realistic animations and voice navigation capability on tablets and AR headset is proposed to enhance the tools that have already been developed during the Phase II effort on fasciotomy, cricothyroidotomy, and lateral canthotomy. Such enhancements are made possible by the recent advancement in both hardware and soft ...

Sepsis is the greatest danger after hemorrhage in both civilian and combat-related injuries with mortality rates ranging between 19.5 - 23%. Early intervention with appropriate antibiotics, hemodynamic optimization, and supportive care are particularly vital in preventing trauma related sepsis. Treatments to prevent trauma sepsis may be confounded by the uncontrolled bleeding which often attends s ...

Our proposal develops an osteochondral repair platform that is conformable to a wide variety of injury geometries without the need for preoperative customization. Further this platform does not rely on any autologous tissue and is amenable to scalable man

Servicemembers exposed to blasts have frequent complaints of vertigo, gaze instability, balance problems, motion intolerance, and other symptoms consistent with peripheral vestibular pathology. Current vestibular rehabilitation is an exercise-based approach aimed at promoting gaze stability, improving balance, and habituating symptoms. To maintain the high standards of the Military Health System i ...

US military personnel are subject to injuries caused by traumatic insults, such as explosions, gunshot wounds, and vehicle accidents. These types of injuries increase the chances of developing infections while waiting for transfer and after admission to medical care facilities. Treating infections due to combat-related wounds requires a high level of medical resources and is less successful compar ...
