The DOD has a need for surgery and procedural training models, which have a high degree of realism and functionality with synthetic skin, muscle, vessels, adipose, and connective tissue. The 3D printing of synthetic tissues enables such models to be fabricated customized to particular situations (i.e. unique anatomy, bone fracture, or condition) and with lower cost than conventional methods. Inco ...

In order to meet Defense Health Agencys need for anatomically correct, self-healing, synthetic tissues for surgical training, ChromoLogic proposes to develop synthetically formulated anatomically correct tissues (SYNFACT). Surgical training models will be selected for fabrication on the SYNFACT system GUI and fabricated on site. SYNFACT surgical training models will self-heal between uses for reus ...

In order to meet the Defense Health Agencys need for addressing the prevention of secondary brain injury from moderate, severe and penetrating traumatic brain injury (TBI), ChromoLogic proposes to develop a cerebral trauma recovery (CereTRec) drug delivery system. In particular, CereTRec aims to treat TBI during prolonged field care (PFC) to stabilize casualties who sustain a moderate-severe TBI. ...

Defense Health Program (DHP) seeks to develop a new and innovative point of injury device to manage patients with moderate-to-severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Critical Innovations, NeoMatRx, and KARA & Associates, with consultants Captain David Plurad, MD, FACS (USN, Ret.) and neurosurgeon Michael Levy, MD, PhD., have formed a team of medical device, trauma, and neurosurgical experts to addres ...

Major advances in prosthetic devices and aggressive rehabilitation over recent years have enabled many warfighters experiencing amputation to regain functional mobility, and often return to full active duty. A critical step to ensuring that these prosthetic devices function seamlessly with the patient is the initial alignment process. This alignment process is often iterative and time consuming, a ...

The confluence of genetics, mobile computing, wearable sensors and computational physiology has started the revolution in personalized medicine with huge civilian and military prospects to promote health and reduce costs. The goal of this project is to develop and demonstrate a Warfighter Health Avatar (WHA): a framework and physiology based modeling tools of a warfighter body to enable assessment ...

EP Analytics Inc. will develop and commercialize a suite of easy-to-use performance profiling and prediction tools for characterizing the performance and energy efficiency of High Fidelity computer codes. DTRA uses High Fidelity codes to investigate weapon effects phenomenology and techniques for countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). End-to-end High Fidelity simulations in support of the D ...

To address the CBDs need for a signal processing system designed to analyze and fuse data collected from chemical and biological sensors, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to further develop the Wavelet-Based Approach for Signal Processing and Analysis (WASP). WASP is based on novel application of Wavelet-based analysis to multimodal, multidimensional data available from a wide variety of ...

The objective of project is to develop a solution that allows doctors, nurses, medics and other healthcare providers to interact with the Electronic Health Record (EHR) in a hands-free manner, while keeping hands completely free to work with patients. Tod

To address the DHP and USAMRMC need for a system to augment a dynamic 3D scene registration using augmented reality (AR) to provide anatomically accurate registration and overlays to aid in medical training, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes to develop a new Educational Medical Simulation and Training Augmented-Reality (EMSTAR) tool. The tool is based on the unique combination of low-cost ...
