- Description
- The FY14 Medical Practice Initiative Team Communications Training Research (MPI-TCT) Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) seeks to advance the state of research under the MPI initiative. The MPI-TCT BAA is being offered for the first time in FY14. The MPI is primarily focused on the research and, ultimately, the development of medical training methods, technologies, systems, and competency assessment tools for the attainment and sustainment of military medical readiness. The MPI advances these goals through research and development projects related to the practice of medicine. The primary purpose of the MPI-TCT BAA is to solicit research that will improve communication skills and team performance in medical settings with the goal of reducing medical errors and improving medical care. Research funded through the MPI-TCT BAA is intended and expected to benefit and inform both military and civilian medical practice and knowledge. Results are expected to inform the Government (DOD and civilian agencies) on the potential viability of a software simulation, technology and/or programming gaps, and on evaluation criteria and/or metrics to improve performance in this domain. This announcement is soliciting research into methods and technology that would support future development of a prototype medical communications skills and/or medical team performance team-training simulation system. Under this announcement, a proof of concept or prototype of the proposed technical high risk work is being sought. A prototype system that undergoes validation may be proposed and developed, provided that it is supported by critical research and analysis of data regarding the nature and extent of improving communication skills and team performance in medical settings that a prototype purports to address and it is supported by valid metrics that support efficacy. The full announcement and submission instructions are located at Grants.gov.
