System and Method for Predicting Pulmonary and Other Complications Following Rib Fractures - (HJF 690-24)
Introduction Scientists at the Henry M. Jackson Foundation (HJF), the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS), and Duke University (Duke) have developed innovative systems, methods, and computational models designed to predict clinical complications such as acute lung injury (ALI), acute kidney injury (AKI), pneumonia, and respiratory...

Non-invasive Clinical Decision Support Tool to Predict Allograft Rejection (HJF 662-23)
Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation (VCA) is a reconstructive option that involves transplantation of composite tissues, such as skin, muscle, and bone, in one surgical procedure. However, graft rejection remains a major challenge that needs to be addressed to improve patient outcomes. To address this challenge, scientists at Johns Hopkins University...

Predictive Tool on Probability of Successful Wound Closure - (HJF 637-22)
Greater than 20% of traumatic wound closure attempts fail due to the immuno-molecular status of the healing wound tissue. Researchers at HJF and the Uniformed Services University for Health Sciences (USU) developed a product that analyzes the individual's wound healing immune response and computes a risk of failure score based on cytokine levels...
