BAE Systems To Develop AI-Powered Software To Improve Battlefield Medical Care For Warfighters

BATDOK® is an AFRL application developed with the support of BAE Systems that creates a complete and reliable record of injuries and treatments from the point of injury through recovery. Traditionally, medical care administered on the battlefield is only recorded on paper. BATDOK® records medical care electronically, ensuring the details of a patient's injury and field treatment are seamlessly transferred to the nurses and doctors providing ongoing care.

FORGE-IT will build on BATDOK®, continuing to enhance remote patient monitoring and improving medical care in the field through clinical decision support powered by embedded artificial intelligence capabilities.

"At BAE Systems, our goal has always been to protect those who protect us," said Nathaniel Wiesner, vice president and general manager of Ground Systems & Services for BAE Systems Space & Mission Systems. "Through projects like FORGE-IT, we're augmenting the abilities of our nation's warfighters to provide critical medical care in high-threat scenarios and ensure that those who are wounded are given effective treatment in the field."

Data collected by BATDOK® and FORGE-IT will be integrated into the Department of Defense's Joint Operational Medicine Information Systems (JOMIS) care delivery platform, which ensures delivery of comprehensive health services for U.S. Armed Forces patients in deployed and home station medical care facilities.

Through this integration, these systems will help clinicians deliver effective care and make sure service members' injuries are properly documented.

FORGE-IT represents the latest innovation in BAE Systems' efforts to support and protect our nation's warfighters on and off the battlefield.
