Use of the Abdominal Aortic Tourniquet for Hemorrhage Control

Abstract

Overall the project has made good progress despite multiple administrative hurdles. Delays occurred due to a temporary shortage of Veterinarians at Georgia Regents University. The research was to be completed at Fort Gordon which required going through a third party not for profit foundation. These delays have necessitated a no cost extension on the project. We have accomplished the administrative requirements and are now ready to begin the animal research protocols in the next 60 days. The wounding device (Blade Lever Apparatus) has been developed. The protocol has IAUCC and ACURO approval. We have established a CRADA and have drafted a subcontract with Geneva Foundation to allow us to complete the research at Eisenhower Army Medical Center.
