Care for the wounded Warfighters in austere and remote settings makes medical knowledge, skills and efficiency of the military medical professional paramount. For wounds that extend deep into internal anatomy, proper visualization of internal anatomy can

The goal of medical simulation-based training such as high-fidelity manikin simulators, part task trainers, and screen-based virtual patients, is to approximate real-life treatment experiences without risk to live patients. While the use of sensors has ma

Traumatic injuries account for 30% of all life years lost in the US and is the leading cause of death for people under 46 years of age. Uncontrolled bleeding or hemorrhage constitute 30-40% of trauma related deaths and are considered to be a major cause o

Problem: Currently available resuscitation fluids have been shown to induce detrimental effects on trauma outcomes. Objective: The objective of this proposal is to use the data from the successful Phase 1 studies to guide the continued development and te

Tiger Tech Solutions, Inc. has developed a unique professional quality biomedical wearable monitoring system. The consumer-oriented devices available on the market today are not suitable for the needs of the warfighter. The Tiger Tech Warfighter Monitor (

ArchieMD will develop an augmented reality (AR) telemedicine training system for integration into the training and assessment of military medical procedures.The system will enable physician instructors to: 1) project expertise to the point of injury, pr

Providing Army combat medics with meaningful experience in treatment of battlefield injuries is a particular challenge. Moulage has the potential to assist in acquiring what could otherwise be very hard-to-come-by preparatory experience for distressing real-life emergencies medics and soldiers may encounter in the field. However, current approaches to moulage are limited in their ability to reflec ...

Complete human anatomy avatars have a broad role in advanced training environments, performance-related physiological modeling, and simulations for the purpose of designing protective armor. The overall goal of this project is to design and develop computer software and data structures for adding articulated joints and natural motions to USARIEMs static finite element avatars and to create a graph ...

Warfighters in global regionsendemicto vector-borne diseases,such as malaria,experienceincreased probability of being non-combat casualties. Currently,amalariavaccineis under development that requirescryogenicstorageand transport (-150°C or lower)and therefore does not readily integrate with existingvaccine distribution networks such as the World Health Organization’s Expanded Program on Immuni ...

The ultimate goal of this research is to develop a realistic, immersive 3-D environment for training en route care personnel in primary/secondary assessment, patient stabilization, patient placement, and mission management. EVAC Sim will provide medic rehearsal opportunities for evacuation patient care scenarios. The simulation will help trainees understand resources available in aeromedical aircr ...
