Hemorrhage Detection Technology

Purpose

This solicitation, issued by MTEC, represents a Request for Project Proposals (RPP) for MTEC support of the U.S. Army Medical Materiel Development Activity (USAMMDA). The award(s) will be managed by the Warfighter Expeditionary Medicine and Treatment (W-EMT) Project Management Office (PMO). The Hemorrhage Detection Integrated Product Team (IPT) will provide consultative input into the project as needed, and conduct annual in-progress reviews with the Milestone Decision Authority, as well as interim reviews if needed more frequently.

This Request for Project Proposals (RPP) is focused on the development of a noninvasive technology for early diagnosis and provider alert of decompensation due to hemorrhage and hemorrhagic shock in order to inform earlier lifesaving interventions and improve patient outcomes (see Section 2 for more detail).

Scope of Work

Project Scope and Potential for Follow-on Work:

The initial 12-month delivery schedule should be focused on tasks relevant to prototype development through proof of concept in a clinical study or system prototype demonstration in a relevant or operational environment for detection of decompensation due to hemorrhage and hemorrhagic shock. Allowable costs include subject matter expertise, consultation to develop a regulatory strategy, testing and evaluation, and clinical trial support. Potential follow-on work in subsequent years may be awarded to continue product development toward additional human clinical trial(s) and relevant FDA clearance/approval.
