The published data has demonstrated that the currently available resuscitation fluids have detrimental effects on trauma outcomes.By addressing these deficiencies it is expected that the outcomes will improve. The crystalloid based resuscitation fluid in development by GanD Inc. has been designed to address all of the shortcomings of the currently available solutions.The solution, GND-001, is a cr ...

The Defense Health Agency (DHA) has identified electrotextiles as a potential means of unobtrusively monitoring health and detecting injury events for military personnel. As such, DHA seeks to understand how e-textile constructs might be best leveraged to sense potential injury events such that individualized care may be administered to support both in-combat self-sufficiency and long-term resilie ...

Successful completion of the previous Phase I study and additional clinical trials has demonstrated that percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has the potential to provide non-opioid pain relief and improvements in function to injured Service members, Veterans, and civilians. Feedback from military advisors, clinicians, and patients have identified challenges that must be addressed to tr ...

Current therapies to prevent scar formation and contracture of burns are minimally effective. QuickMed Technologies (QMT) proposes to develop an advanced therapy to enhance healing and prevent contraction of burn scars by combining the advanced prototype BURN-PLUS dressing with Endoform dermal template. BURN-PLUS is an occlusive island dressing with an adhesive apron bonded onto a super absorben ...

Commercial off the shelf (COTS) sequential samplers that pull contaminated air through thermal desorption (TD) sample tubes have many limitations that reduce their usefulness when they are used to measure volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in air.In this SBIR Project TDA Research is developing an intelligent thermal desorption tube sequential sampler that can be used for VOC sampling in the workspa ...

Dynamic Avatars with Complete Articulated Anatomy (DACAA) is an innovative solution proposed and developed by the Innovision Team for USARIEM avatars repositioning and movement. Based on the advancements and findings achieved in Phase I, we have refined and renovated DACAA concept and expanded Phase II work scope to pursue advanced goals essential to USARIEMs mission. The renovated concept of DACA ...

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 ...

Researchers are identifying new biomarkers to help monitor cognition and stress in the human body and enhance human performance.Traditional biomarkers like heart rate, temperature, oxygen partial pressure, blood glucose, electrolyte concentration, and others have beencorrelated with cognition and stress states. However, the correlation is indirect. Molecular biomarkers with stronger and more speci ...

CRG proposes to develop a wearable health monitoring system that leverages multi-modal, distributive sensing through an array of miniature, ultra-low power sensors to realize high accuracy while mitigating bulk and discomfort.The proposed approach facil

Data protection/cybersecurity is an urgent concern touching all industries, governments, and private citizens. Attacks, ranging from an individual actor with self-serving purposes to state-sponsored campaigns, are experienced across modalities and by most every system. Efforts to thwart these attacks are focused both on maintaining data/system integrity (i.e. prevention of perversion or loss) and ...
