Operation Lifeblood
Hemorrhagic Shock • Military & Emergency Medicine
Focused Research Organization
Operation Lifeblood unites military medicine, first responders, and trauma science in a time-bound, milestone-driven research organization focused on turning hemorrhagic shock from a leading cause of preventable death into a survivable condition.
Service to Those Who Serve • Scientific Excellence • Operational Realism
Our mission is to eliminate preventable deaths from trauma and hemorrhagic shock by advancing innovative research, developing field-ready treatments, and rapidly translating military medical breakthroughs into lifesaving solutions.
We focus on the full continuum of care: from point of injury, through evacuation and resuscitation, to definitive treatment.
We envision a world where no soldier or civilian dies from survivable shock—where science, technology, and systems of care work together to deliver rapid, effective solutions.
Core Values
Uncontrolled bleeding remains a leading cause of preventable death after trauma.
Medics make life-and-death decisions with limited diagnostics and minimal resources.
EMS and emergency departments face unpredictable scenes and variable access to care.
Traditional structures excel at discovery but struggle with sustained translation.
