Blood Logistics Integrity | Security (BLIS): A Comprehensive Prehospital Blood Logistics Solution for Post-Crash Care Enhancement

The BLIS (Blood Logistics, Integrity & Security) System tackles bottlenecks and fills gaps in the blood and biologic supply chain to ensure timely delivery, equitable access, and efficient resource management. Reach is extended in rural communities and frontier areas with a novel, drone-led, multimodal, hub & spoke and point-to-point delivery network. BLIS Boxes use advanced thermoelectric technology with continuous verifiable temperature control to protect product integrity and prevent wastage during cold chain transport from the blood donor (collection/processing) to the prehospital patient. Blood can be warmed during transport for immediate transfusion on arrival at a post-crash site. BLIS System biologic data tracking can be used for logistics planning, inventory management, and biologic research. BLIS streamlines delivery logistics and facilitates rapid blood transfusions in critical moments following accidents. With an estimated 11,000 paramedic-level Emergency Medical Services (EMS) agencies nationwide and with less than 1% of EMS agencies carrying blood products, there is a broader need for equitable access to prehospital blood transfusion services nationwide. BLIS empowers EMS agencies of all sizes and locations to efficiently access and administer life-saving blood products. As a dual-use solution for both civilian and military, BLIS scales to offer ŕ la carte options for varying needs.
