Prospective Evaluation of Health Outcomes in AE Casualties: a Pilot Study
This study involves individuals who are currently participating in the Wounded Warrior
Recovery Project and underwent aeromedical evacuation due to injury during deployment in Iraq
or Afghanistan. The goal of the study is to understand how best to engage wounded warriors in
research activities studying long-term health. Based on the results from this study, the
investigators can plan a larger study with the goal to better understand the long-term health
conditions of individuals who were injured in combat and improve patient care.
As part of the study, participants will be asked to provide two sets of lab work over the
course of a year. Each set of lab work will include one blood draw, one urine sample, and
height, weight, and blood pressure measurements. In order to track long-term health,
information from participants' lab work will be linked with study-related health data, as
well as surveys they have completed with the Wounded Warrior Recovery Project.
