An Automated Hardware-in-Loop Testbed for Evaluating Hemorrhagic Shock Resuscitation Controllers
Bioengineering, 2022 Hemorrhage remains a leading cause of death, with early goal-directed fluid resuscitation being a pillar of mortality prevention. While closed-loop resuscitation can potentially benefit this effort, development of these systems is resource-intensive ...

The relationship between residual limb health, motion within the socket, and prosthetic suspension
PM&R, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 510-521, April 2023., 2023 Abstract Residual limb health is critical for continued prosthesis use; however, many prosthesis users experience skin‐related breakdown. The interface between the residual limb and the prosthetic socket sets the local mechanical environment and plays a role in skin stresses.

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 180, Issue 4, Page 422-440, February 2023., 2023 Background and Purpose Traumatic haemorrhage (TH) is the leading cause of potentially preventable deaths that occur during the prehospital phase of care. No effective pharmacological therapeutics are available for critical TH patients yet. Here, we identify terminal complement activation (TCA) as a therapeutic target in combat casualties and evaluate ...

Spectral Reflectance as a Unique Tissue Identifier in Healthy Humans and Inhalation Injury Subjects
Sensors, 2022 Tracheal intubation is the preferred method of airway management, a common emergency trauma medicine problem. Currently, methods for confirming tracheal tube placement are lacking, and we propose a novel technology, spectral reflectance, which may be ...

Lisch nodules and iris mammillations in two siblings with familial legius syndrome
Clinical Case Reports, 2020 Legius syndrome is characterized by numerous café‐au‐lait macules and intertriginous freckling, but typically lacks the distinctive tumor manifestations of neurofibromatosis type 1.
