Introduction Exsanguination following trauma is potentially preventable. Extremity
tourniquets have been successfully implemented in military and civilian prehospital care …

Preventing arterial hemorrhage by intervening within the first few minutes is critical to the
patient's life. Hemostatic materials have been developed over the last decades to address …

With the widespread adoption of advanced tourniquets, the mortality rate of limb wound
hemorrhage has decreased significantly, and non-compressible torso hemorrhage has …

Uncontrollable haemorrhage from deep, noncompressible wounds remains a persistent and
intractable challenge, accounting for a very high proportion of deaths in both war and …

Hemorrhage is the most preventable cause of posttraumatic death. Many cases are
potentially anatomically salvageable, yet remain lethal without logistics or trained personnel …

Exsanguinating hemorrhage is a primary cause of battlefield death. The iTClamp is a
relatively new device (FDA approval in 2013) that takes a different approach to hemorrhage …

Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable death in trauma, and hemorrhage from
noncompressible junctional anatomic sites is particularly difficult to control. The current …

Human space travel requires exposure to weightlessness, ionizing radiation, isolation, and
austerity. A recent report of internal jugular vein thrombosis in astronauts in low Earth orbit …

Background This work sought to (1) establish a reliable gunshot model of junctional femoral
artery rupture in swine that accurately simulates field rescue conditions and (2) use the …

Background: Craniomaxillofacial (CMF) injuries are very common in both civilian and
military settings. Nearly half of all civilian trauma incidents include a scalp laceration and …
