GDF-Medical Products and Capabilities Enhancement Activities
Abstract
The goal of the Medical Products and Capabilities Enhancement Activity is to test, evaluate, and support enhancement of existing medical products and medically-related IT systems within the areas of medical simulation, infectious disease, tactical combat casualty care, military operational medicine, and clinical and rehabilitative medicine. Additionally, funding supports the investigation of clinical intervention outcomes to support, enhance, and improve militarily unique Clinical Practice Guidelines. Program Element 6.7 efforts are short-term, high-impact projects. It is an intramural research program focused on evaluating new commercial medical capabilities suitable for theater, testing fielded capabilities to determine if they can function in an expanded or altered operationally-relevant environment, and investigating the potential to incorporate emerging medical or non-medical technologies into fielded medical systems. The program structure provides a flexible and responsive mechanism to accomplish these objectives.
