Pioneering Critical Interventions for Combat-Relevant Trauma

AREVA advances innovative solutions in wearable medical technologies, polytrauma management, and critical care to address the unique challenges of combat and austere environments. With a focus on pioneering portable extracorporeal life support (ECLS) systems and autonomous critical care technologies, AREVA’s research initiatives ensure rapid, effective responses to critical care challenges, enhancing survivability and operational success in the most demanding environments.

Mission

To enable the research-to-practice translation of novel life-saving interventions in critical care through the development of clinically relevant translational trauma models and subsequent clinical trials.

Impact

AREVA bridges the gap between innovation and application, transforming critical care for combat-relevant trauma with physician-led research that delivers scalable, life-saving solutions at ground level and high altitudes.

The Geneva Advantage

In 2022, Geneva formally established AREVA as a program with the organization, building on over 30 years of military research expertise. Geneva supports AREVA by facilitating collaborations, securing funding, ensuring compliance, and providing operational support. This partnership is vital for translating innovative trauma and critical care interventions into practice, enhancing warfighter readiness and survivability.

Research Projects

Multiorgan Extracorporeal Life Support (MELS) system

Redefining Life Support for the Frontlines of Care

AREVA is pioneering a portable Multiorgan Extracorporeal Life Support (MELS) system, a miniaturized, battery-operated, heparin-free ECMO platform that integrates kidney support and nitric oxide for safer operation. Through testing in nonclinical models, AREVA is setting a new standard for lifesaving care in the most challenging environments.

Pioneering Combat Trauma Interventions

The Combat Resuscitation Organ Support System (CROSS) is a patented wearable life-support vest that advances minimally invasive ECMO technologies, combining lung and renal therapies into a portable, tailored platform. This breakthrough solution addresses critical needs of in both combat and civilian trauma care, offering life-saving interventions for patients previously deemed unsavable, and reshaping the future of far-forward medical care.

Combat-Ready Life Support Solutions for Modern Challenges

AREVA is at the forefront of developing heparin-free ECLS systems. The team is exploring innovative solutions, including the integration of nitric oxide and other advanced technologies, to reduce or eliminate the need for systemic anticoagulation, enhancing patient safety and expanding the application of ECLS in diverse environments.
