Daxor Corporation announced that it has signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (“CRADA”) with The Uniformed Services University (“USU”), a medical school affiliated with all military branches of the United States, and The Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine (HJF) under the leadership of David Burmeister, PhD, Department of Medicine, USU and Brandon W. Popper, MD FACS, Department of Surgery, USU. In collaboration with USU and a grant received from AFWERX, a Technology Directorate of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and the innovation arm of the Department Air Force, Daxor is developing an updated diagnostic device and tracer system to replace the current I-131 nuclear tracer used in the BVA-100® Blood Volume Analyzer. Extensive peer-reviewed medical literature has validated Daxor's BVA's enhancement of interventions through reliable and accurate blood volume measurement.

Most relevant to military medicine is a prospective randomized controlled trial which demonstrated that, compared to standard care, actionable BVA-100 information changed surgical intensive care unit (SICU) fluid and red blood cell interventions by 44% of cases while reducing patient mortality by 66%. Additionally, it cut patients' length of stay and days on a ventilator.
