Crash Injury Research and Engineering Network (CIREN) IDIQ

The Crash Injury Research and Engineering Network (CIREN) is a sponsor-led multi-center research and data collection program involving a collaboration of clinicians and engineers in academia, industry, and government pursuing in-depth studies of crashes, and the resultant injuries and treatments, to improve processes and outcomes. CIREN’s mission is to improve the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of motor vehicle crash injuries to reduce deaths, disabilities, and human and economic costs. The CIREN process combines prospective data collection with professional multi-disciplinary analysis of medical and engineering evidence to determine injury causation in every crash investigation conducted. The injury data collected under the CIREN program includes over 500 data elements such as radiological images, operative notes, and pre-existing conditions that may play a role in injury severity and long-term outcome. This data is collected and reviewed by highly-regarded professionals from the medical and engineering fields. The coded biomechanical causation of all serious injuries is an attribute exclusive to CIREN, and serves as a starting point for further injury and vehicle safety research.
