He believes that the new tool will help save lives in extreme situations: in cases of dramatic injury, when doctors and paramedics must make important medical decisions on the battlefield using traditional diagnostics. The tool that he worked on will also give them an objective measure for emergencies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the battlefield there is a lot of noise, shouting, gunfire, darkness, and sometimes helicopter evacuation too. We are not working out of a sterile room,\u201d Sommer describes. \u201cThis device is compact and helps to reach a diagnosis within 30 seconds, determining between \u2018pneumothorax\u2019 and \u2018hemothorax\u2019. These are trauma injuries, in which air or blood accumulates between the rib wall and the lung itself. According to studies, these kinds of injuries can cause up to a third of the deaths that could have been prevented on the battlefield. That is a very large number of preventable deaths.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1280\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1280\" style=\"width: 5458px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Nir-Slakman-\u05d0\u05de\u05d9\u05e8-\u05d6\u05d5\u05de\u05e8-FORBES-5985.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1280 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Nir-Slakman-\u05d0\u05de\u05d9\u05e8-\u05d6\u05d5\u05de\u05e8-FORBES-5985.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5458\" height=\"3639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Nir-Slakman-\u05d0\u05de\u05d9\u05e8-\u05d6\u05d5\u05de\u05e8-FORBES-5985.jpg 5458w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Nir-Slakman-\u05d0\u05de\u05d9\u05e8-\u05d6\u05d5\u05de\u05e8-FORBES-5985-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Nir-Slakman-\u05d0\u05de\u05d9\u05e8-\u05d6\u05d5\u05de\u05e8-FORBES-5985-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/forbes.co.il\/e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Nir-Slakman-\u05d0\u05de\u05d9\u05e8-\u05d6\u05d5\u05de\u05e8-FORBES-5985-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5458px) 100vw, 5458px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1280\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Adir Sommer | Photo: Nir Slakman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Like you check a watermelon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Biology and chemistry attracted Sommer, whose mother was a doctor, from a young age. \u201cSomewhere around 11<sup>th<\/sup> or 12<sup>th<\/sup> grade I realized that medicine really interests me,\u201d he tells of the path that led tim to register for the Academic Atuda<em>.<\/em> On account of his grades, he was not accepted, and only after a year in which he worked to improve them, he was accepted to the Technion. \u201cOne way or another I would have studied medicine, I couldn\u2019t help myself. Medicine has the ability to influence lives. It\u2019s not just developing an application. The army gives you many tools: you also become independent, able to manage<em>.<\/em> So ultimately, the Atuda track is good, if you are okay with the idea of making a long term decision at such a young age.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Developing this chest injury diagnostic tool was not the only innovation Sommer came up with. Throughout his studies, he worked with friends on an arterial tourniquet which quickly stops bleeding from the limbs. This enterprise even won a number of competitions and also made them useful connections in the industry, but ultimately, that project was never realized. After his studies, and when he had already begun his military service, Sommer and a friend developed the idea behind the tool for accurate and rapid diagnosis of chest injuries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe began working on the idea when we thought about how to analyze the acoustic signal received after a thoracic puncture,\u201d he describes. \u201cSimilar to the way you knock on a watermelon, and according to the quality of the sound that you hear, you have some idea of what\u2019s going on under the rind. These days, you put your ear up to the patient\u2019s chest, and if you get a kind of weak, unclear sound, that tells you that this is likely a \u2018hemothorax\u2019. A different sound will tell you that you\u2019re dealing with a \u2018pneumothorax\u2019. Our development is intended to improve the quality and the speed of the diagnosis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fertile ground for research<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The product they are working on today is based on the original idea from the beginning of their army service &#8211; with many refinements. Sommer leads the work on the new tool, but emphasizes that a lot of \u201cgood and industrious\u201d people are working on it, from within and outside of the army. Most of the development is taking place in the medical engineering branch at the headquarters of the Chief Medical Officer, with a team of doctors and engineers, supported by the Hebrew University. It has not yet been tested on the battlefield, but a prototype has been produced which has proven the device\u2019s capabilities. The aim is to bring it into field testing by the end of 2019. \u201cThe Medical Corps believes strongly in technological innovation. The innovative spirit of the corps is to sometimes take risks and try new things,\u201d he says. \u201cMaybe the world of medical technology is less glamorous than other realms of tech, but the combination of entrepreneurship and medicine is amazing to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>When do you manage to engage with both research <em>and<\/em> development?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cIn my first role I already wanted to turn the job into something interesting, not standard. I appealed to the academic branch of the Medical Corps, a division that deals with development and research that you can participate in. The army is fertile ground for academic research, and from there it got going. I\u2019m working on other studies in collaboration with the Rambam hospital in Haifa and also consult with students on a volunteer basis. I find free time on weekends and also receive dedicated time from the brigade, which supports me a great deal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sommer points out that the way in which he chose to live his life, as well as his research activity &#8211; and even family involvement &#8211; is meant to make a mark. \u201cWe don\u2019t live forever. What is left of us is memories. So this is my way to make an impact, leave a mark. This is how they will remember me,\u201d says Sommer, and adds: \u201cWhat you do for humanity provides fuel for your work. You\u2019re not working towards your own good alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sommer&#8217;s world view, who currently lives in Pardes Hana with his family, reflects his personal life well. His first child, Adam, was born one month ago, and since then he has opted to take on a personal project of cleaning beaches. \u201cWhen the boy joined the family, that really spurred me on, because I know that this way we are also leaving a clean beach for him,\u201d he concludes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\" style=\"line-height: 150%;\"><em><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%;\">Translation by Zoe Jordan<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Adir Sommer doesn\u2019t stop with his role as a doctor and commander in the IDF\u2019s Nahal Brigade, he also does what has always been important to him &#8211; developing medical technology for diagnosing chest injuries and saving lives on the battlefield<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":1280,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-innovation"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
