For this Phase I SBIR proposal, Vcom3D proposes to design an Advanced Female Trauma Training System that features the accurate representation of anatomical and physiological differences of the women in our nations armed forces, and of the types of injuries that they are most likely to sustain in combat. The training system will include a ruggedized medical manikin and a wireless tablet controller ...

Hyperkalemia continues to be a concern when treating combat casualties. Current hemodialysis systems use a dialysate in a membrane contactor to replicate the function of the kidney by removing the toxins, excess fluid and the minerals. The dialysis machines used in hemodialysis centers are bulky. There are home dialysis machines that are smaller but not person portable and weighing about 70lbs.Sim ...

For this Phase I SBIR proposal, Vcom3D proposes to design advanced medical moulage that accurately simulates the progression of an injury or pathology by morphing through a series of clinical states to enable learners to confirm the progression of the wound and to determine whether iatrogenic errors or pathologies occurred duing treatment. The physical morphing moulage may be applied to medical m ...

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

The focus of this project is to develop a low-cost, wearable, easy to use, continuous socket/suspension monitoring system (SSMS) that tracks the relative displacement between the amputees’ residual limb and their socket or pistoning through the use of magnetic sensors. To do this, the project (1) designs and constructs the SSMS and demonstrates its capability through a bench top experiment; (2) ...

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

Realistic surgical simulation requires a combination of representative tissue geometry, accurate tissue material properties and lifelike tool-tissue interaction forces. Recent advances in computational power and imaging modalities have provided the capability to represent the anatomical details required for surgical training; however, the mathematical models which govern the underlying tissue pro ...

BioMojo LLC and the Departments of Mathematics and Biomedical Engineering at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, will develop a preliminary bio mathematical model framework to represent how human tissues interact and behave at their boundaries. Tissue interaction properties (e.g. tensile, shear, friction, and so forth) of connective, epithelial, muscular, and nervous tissue including su ...

Most standard-of-care tools and techniques for evaluating neck disorders are subjective, unreliable, and do not provide actionable information for providers, payers, and organizations to deliver efficient and effective care. This lack of objective neck he
