Due to the prevalence of trauma, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and resuscitation in conflicts and their poor outcomes (brain damage), do you think that a combined anesthesiology/ER residency would be useful in the military?
I followed up with the last author of "The Anesthesiology/Emergency Medicine Combined Residency: Defining a New Future for Trauma Resuscitation" http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40140-015-0130-9 a few weeks ago after meeting him last year, and mentioned that his idea for a combined anesthesiology/ER residency would be useful in the armed forces; I did so after seeing/posting in a thread here https://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/proposed-em-anesthesiology-combined-program.1172147/ then, being reminded of research I did last year on a new neuroprotective drug undergoing clinical trials (xenon), and noticing that this residency is only offered at Johns Hopkins (nearby Walter Reed), currently.
I want to follow up with him after getting feedback from people here as well as attending USUHS open house and meeting the Director of clinical trials at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) and possibly an Army HPSP recruiter in DC later this week; they're starting a lot of clinical/translational research in the Armed Forces for CNS disorders and TBI, and I'm interested in doing a clinical pharmacology fellowship at WRAIR via the HPSP or USUHS. If anyone wants to meet near Bethesda on Thursday, feel free to pm me.
For reference, although several threads have been started about this on the anesthesiology sub-forum, every discussion has overlooked its intent for trauma resuscitation per the title of his publication.

Here's a news story on its accreditation: http://www.theaba.org/ABOUT/News-Announcements/ABA-and-ABEM-Announce-Combined-Residency-Training @Armyhealth
