Using a well-equipped mobile operating room housed inside a converted delivery truck, a medical team led by Ronald C. Merrell, M.D., chairman of surgery at Virginia Commonwealth Universitys School of Medicine, performs surgery in South America while monitoring patients' breathing and heart rhythms on a desktop computer 3,000 miles away in Richmond.<br /> <br /> Virginia Commonwealth University and NBC-12 teamed up to create the series called "It's VCU" to showcase this urban university, located in the heart of Richmond. VCUs diverse students, faculty and programs, superior teaching, steady growth and groundbreaking research are shaping Richmond, the state and the region. tag:medtechiq.ning.com,2008-08-14:2140535:Video:2187 2008-08-14T17:12:10.329Z CC-Conrad Clyburn-MedForeSight https://medtechiq.ning.com/profile/CCatMedTechIQ

The three invented WoundStat™, a ground-breaking hemostatic agent for control of bleeding in high-pressure arterial wounds, which are a common combat injury. The award was given to the group “in recognition of their hemorrhage control research, and the resultant development of WoundStat, a product that will significantly increase survival of the combat wounded.”<br /> Combat Casualty Care, U.S. Army Medical Research &amp; Material Command, <a href="https://www.usaccc.org/">https://www.usaccc.org/</a>
