Proceedings of the Military Operational Medicine Research Program Return-to-Duty Research Working Group Meeting, 19-20 September 2012

Abstract

A workshop, entitled "Return-to-Duty Assessment Methods and Standards: Developing a Research Agenda," was held at the Hilton Garden Inn, Frederick, MD, on 19-20 September 2012. Sponsored by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command?s (USAMRMC) Military Operational Medicine Research Program (MOMRP), the workshop objectives were 1) to ensure that MOMRP RTD research programs are targeting the most important gaps and current Department of Defense (DoD) needs, 2) to establish a dialog among the various key performers and stakeholders, and 3) to synchronize the efforts of various RTD and fitness-for-duty programs across the DoD. The underlying intent was to address the development of RTD standards and assessment tools focused on the most common injuries across DoD: neurosensory injury (e.g., concussion), musculoskeletal injury (e.g., training-related), and psychological injury (e.g., PTSD, depression). This report contains the workshop presentations, comment highlights, and break-out group notes.
