Department of Defense (DoD) TRIAGE Award for Trauma Resiliency Immersive Adaptive Gaming Environment

The FY18 JPC-1/ MSIS PH/TBIRP TRIAGE Award is seeking proposals/applications developing and evaluating an innovative protocol for virtual immersive gaming interoperable components that will increase medical care provider performance, adaptability, and agility in stress-inducing contexts related to Roles of Care 1-3.  These resulting TRIAGE proof-of-concept models should be developed for relevancy to medical simulation training across the continuum of care and address the needs and priorities of the military medical training community, with applicability to civilian groups as well.  TRIAGE is a line of research that maps to DHA’s Warfighter Preparation, Resilience, Enhancement and Protection (WarPREP) program, under the JPC-1/MSIS Med Sim portfolio.  It addresses the capability gap to provide resiliency training prior to deployment to better elicit higher performance under pressure.  The ultimate goal of this research is to increase medical care providers’ readiness and resiliency through increases in performance, adaptability, and agility in the diverse high pressure and stressful context anticipated in Roles of Care 1-3.
