- Description
- The Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC) is excited to post this announcement for a Request for Project Proposals (RPP) focused on the development of a prototype that can stop life threatening bleeding in the abdominal intracavitary region of patients who are delayed in receiving definitive surgical care. Hemorrhage is the leading cause of trauma-related death in both civilian and military populations. A study of 4,596 battlefield fatalities from Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom determined that hemorrhage accounted for 91% of potentially survivable fatalities occurring prior to arrival at a Medical Treatment Facility (Eastridge et al., 2012). Additionally, of those 888 deaths attributable to hemorrhage, 67% were from truncal hemorrhage (Eastridge et al., 2012). This supports the vital need for intervention in far forward military environments.
