In the initial SBIR Phase II, Intelligent Automation, Inc. (IAI) developed a voice-based Tele-PTSD Monitor (TPM) system to remotely screen, monitor, and provide assistance to clinicians in assessing a PTSD patients condition. ListEn is the brain of TPM system. It processes the voice data, extracts different types of salient features, and computes PTSD scores based on state-of-art machine learning ...

Bioassays employed to evaluate the diverse range of biomarkers associated with organ injury are time-consuming, costly and require multiple instruments/testing formats to reach a diagnosis (i.e. fluorescence-based capture, ELISAs, PCR, etc.). Individually, these platforms are incapable of predicting the onset of irreversible organ tissue injury (e.g. kidney, liver, heart and lung). If a single mul ...

Many emergency cricothyrotomy kits have been developed in an attempt to simplify this potentially life-saving medical procedure. However, none of the existing kits perform noticeably better than the standard surgical kit. The standard kit itself has led

In this Phase I program, Fabrico Technology, Professor Leonid Bunegin of the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSC-SA), and Dr. Rocco Armonda, Director, Neuroendovascular Surgery and Neurotrauma, MedStar-Georgetown University Hos

Timely management and closure of burn wounds are critical for proper emergency care and the assurance of positive outcomes for the warfighter. Current technologies rely on reagents that cannot respond effectively to the different classes of pathogens that

Platelets play a central role in hemostasis and are responsible for many inherited and acquired bleeding disorders and thrombic events in human beings. A significant portion of post-trauma deaths are related to coagulopathy or hemorrhage events for both injured soldiers and civilian patients. Several platelet function analyzers have been designed and developed; however due to form-factor and/or ...

Our warfighters are at great risk of large area burn wounds from incendiary munitions and improvised devices. Limitations of currently utilized field dressings greatly increase incidences of wound infection, further deterioration, shock and fatalities during CASEVAC to higher echelon levels of military medical care. During Phase I, Lynntech demonstrated strong proof-of-concept in vitro for a nov ...

Combat surgery training is an essential mission of the US Armed Forces. Courses such as Emergency War Surgery Course (EWSC) and Advanced Trauma Operative Management (ATOM) have been developed to meet this requirement. However, these courses do not cover all relevant procedures and rely on animals and cadavers which limits their utility. Operative Experience Incorporated will further improve the tr ...

Large medical centers can overwhelm patients - for example, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center covers over 2.4 million square feet of clinical space - yet the primary objective for these facilities is to provide patient satisfaction with the healthcare services. A Virtual Concierge application is being proposed to help guide the patients throughout their entire visit at the medical faci ...

KBSI proposes to design and develop a Data Integration and Predictive Analysis System (IPAS) for the prediction of incidents of human infectious diseases. IPAS will utilize innovative collection of data from open data sources, veterinary and medical professionals, and public observations, together with data cleaning, harmonization, spatio-temporal pattern extraction, factor analysis, and predicti ...
