Hearing loss and tinnitus remain the most common service-connected disabilities, and may be caused by excessive noise exposure, as well as blast and impulse noise.Soldiers who experience tinnitus or mild-to-moderate hearing loss tend to have difficulty understanding speech-in-noise.While peripheral hearing loss can be addressed with amplification through a hearing aid, significant rehabilitation i ...

One of the most important infectious diseases affecting the health of military recruits is adenovirus, which causes acute outbreaks of respiratory disease in military facilities incapacitating personnel, burdening hospitals, disrupting military operations and increasing medical costs. We propose to continue the development of a new generation of adenovirus vaccines based on adenovirus-like particl ...

The CONOPS for the Expeditionary Medical Support System (EMEDS) is based on practical effectiveness, speed, and efficiency. Key among the tools required by the Air Mobility Command and the Air Combat Command, which are two of the major commands that are part of the United Air Force is a multi-channel intravenous infusion pump capable of delivering fluids that meets the safe-to-fly criteria for all ...

1. Produce AdVLP 55 to address the ongoing epidemic of Adenovirus type 55 causing severe pulmonary infections and death in Asia. 2. Establish analytical methods to monitor in-process production control, characterize the final vaccine product, conduct Ad

Warfighters increasingly rely on mobile devices for voice communication, access to information, and execution of apps that aid them in their tasks. However, untrustworthy applications and risky online behaviors can compromise the mobile device. To be secu

About 40% of trauma-related deaths are associated with rapid onset of coagulopathy. The vast majority of trauma patients are coagulopathic at the time of death. In Phase I, Lynntech demonstrated strong proof-of-concept for developing a novel, easy-to-use and cost effective device for quantitative real-time detection of a biomarker of coagulopathy, using human unprocessed whole blood as the input s ...

The goal of IPAS is to design and develop Data Integration and Predictive Analysis System (IPAS) that enables prediction, analysis, and response management of incidents of human infectious diseases.IPAS collects and integrates comprehensive datasets of previous disease incidents and potential influencing factors such as environmental, vector prevalence, demographic, health conditions, other diseas ...

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

Service members are exposed to high noise environments on a daily basis. Aviation, mechanized, light and armored units are all exposed to environments well in excess of the permissible noise levels. In aviation alone, flight crews spend a majority of thei

Hypres is pleased to submit this proposal to continue its Phase II SBIR program and complete the development of a combat-area portable digital MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) system capable of high-resolution Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) diagnosis in field hospitals. This sequential Phase IIc SBIR program will produce and demonstrate a near production ready state-of-the-art portable MRI system at ...
