Purple Patch™ Active Bandage Platform Inspired by the legacy of the Purple Heart and the determination to survive against all odds, Purple Patch™ is the world’s first Autonomous Emergency Response System engineered for both battlefield and civilian deployment.

​

Designed under the Design Team Collaboration Medical Skunkworks Program, the Purple Patch Platform unifies trauma innovation, AI-integrated triage, and modular field treatment in a single, life-saving ecosystem. It is the flagship solution in our broader emergency medical informatics cluster.

​

Autonomous Trauma System for the Golden Hour

The Purple Patch™ system integrates two groundbreaking technologies:

  • CardioPoint: a deep-needle cardiac pacing solution

  • NeuroSeal: a biointegrated active bandage with blood filtration and drug delivery

​

Together, they form a modular, AI-coordinated care platform that sustains life autonomously in the critical minutes before EMS, fire, or military medics arrive. The system interfaces with a 911 Smart Phone and a Miniaturized ICU Emergency Kit, enabling real-time triage, vitals monitoring, and medical decision support in resource-limited environments.

Technical Overview (PhD Biomedical Focus)

1. NeuroSeal – Biointegrated Hemorrhage and Thoracic Trauma Solution

A field-deployable bandage that stabilizes chest wounds, preserves blood, and delivers therapy through precision targeting:

  • Blood Capture & Reinfusion
    Dual-layer microporous membranes filter blood from lungs, chest, mouth, and nose while preserving red blood cells. Substrates neutralize bacteria, gunpowder, and heavy metals.

  • Field Oxygenation
    Blood is reoxygenated using hollow-fiber exchange membranes and optional solid-state Oâ‚‚ generators.

  • Aortic Loop Needle Access
    A hollow, acupuncture-style needle accesses the aortic loop for rapid neuro-targeted drug delivery:

    • Vasopressors (e.g., norepinephrine)

    • Neuroprotectants (e.g., magnesium sulfate)

    • Anti-clotting agents (e.g., bivalirudin, kaolin)

  • Exit Wound & Esophageal Sealing
    Shape-memory foams, polymer plugs, and catheterized expansion chambers isolate wound channels and seal off the esophagus, preventing aspiration and blood loss.

  • Smart Adhesion on Wet Surfaces
    Hydrogel adhesives and bio-inspired dopamine binders ensure reliable seal even under extreme hemorrhagic or irregular surface conditions.

  • Limb & Extremity Application
    Adaptive compression maintains distal perfusion—surpassing traditional tourniquets—while still controlling hemorrhage.

​

2. CardioPoint – Sub-Cardiac Electrical Pacing Device

This deep-needle pacing system revives the heart in prehospital settings where defibrillators are unavailable or ineffective.

  • Dual-needle closed-loop stimulation mimics targeted defibrillation

  • Triggers cardiac activation in field cardiac arrest scenarios

  • Fully synchronized with NeuroSeal for coordinated systemic revival

​

3. Emergency Staff Informatics Integration

Every Purple Patch device becomes a sensor, collecting and transmitting:

  • ECG and heart rate

  • Blood pressure and respiration

  • Blood oxygenation (pre- and post-filtration)

  • Drug delivery timestamps

  • Total recovered blood volume

​

This data is synced to the 911 Smart Phone and integrated into Emergency Staff Informatics, enabling:

  • AI-assisted triage

  • Remote specialist support

  • Autonomous or semi-autonomous field care coordination

​

Combat-Ready. Civilian-Safe. Future-Proof.

Purple Patch™ was born for the battlefield but built for civilian mass-casualty response, rural trauma rescue, disaster relief, and law enforcement medical integration.

​

It’s not just a bandage—it's an intelligent, deployable trauma platform that closes the critical gap between injury and intervention.
