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 (

Predictive medicine has considerable potential to improve clinical outcomes during the crucial minutes and hours immediately following combat trauma. There is a requirement for an avatar solution that serves a multitude of functions for predictive medicine in the battlefield and beyond, including digital health data warehousing and prediction of immediate and long-term outcomes associated with var ...

Traumatic injury represents one of the most common reasons for mortality and accounts for 14.2% of all fatalities. Clinical management of trauma and emergency surgeries in combat casualties often require massive plasma transfusions. However, in critical c

Military personnel are exposed to broad range of toxic compounds. The militarys mission means that hazards cannot always be predicted since service often occurs in a wide array of uncontrolled environments. The usual first line of defense, area monitoring, is not applicable due to the variable workplace facing the military. Thus, personal dosimeters are required that measure a person's exposure to ...

A recent study of battlefield casualties found that over 90% of potentially survivable mortality cases were associated with hemorrhage. It is critical to maintain fluids and prevent hemorrhagic shock as soon as possible after the injury. However, medics must plan for and carry these bulky solutions to the point of injury, and additional casualties could exhaust limited available supplies. Mainstre ...

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 ...

While fluorocarbons are released in relatively small amounts, they can have half-lives in the atmosphere as long as 50,000 years. However, they have extremely high global warming potential relative to other greenhouse gases, so that even small atmospheric concentrations can have large effect on global temperatures. For this reason, monitoring atmospheric concentrations of these compounds, identify ...

Nanohmics proposes to develop a radically new type of general water toxicity monitor based on the widely published principle that many eukaryotic (including yeast) cell lysosomes swell and increase in numbers in response to pollutants in water within 30-6

Warfighters who have been exposed to blasts have reported high rates of vestibular symptoms such as dizziness, clumsiness, imbalance and vertigo. Overt symptoms may also include balance and spatial disorientation problems, vision disturbances, inner-ear e

Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI), more commonly known as concussion, is well reported in both civilian and military literature, and has gained significant public attention due to recent conflicts in the Middle East and the extensive media coverage on the dangers of sports related head trauma. The Army has identified the need to develop a simple, easy-to-use, portable screening device to assess m ...
