Medical Development

Abstract

The purpose of this item is to develop biomedical equipment and related techniques to reduce morbidity; to enhance the logistic feasibility of modern medical care for combat casualties; to sustain casualties for evacuation to fixed medical facilities for definitive care; and to ensure that personnel are medically qualified for military duty. Each work unit undertaken in this project has a military requirement. Efforts are justified based upon military payoff and cost benefit. There is a strong potential for dual use, technology transfer, and biotechnology firm/industry participation in the projects.
