Organizational Overview

The Transfusion Medicine Hemostasis Clinical Trial Network is funded through the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

The Data Coordinating Center (DCC) plays a key role in developing and facilitating study protocols and is responsible for statistical planning and accumulation of quality data from participating clinical centers. The DCC for the TMH Network is New England Research Institutes, Inc., at www.neriscience.com

There are 17 Core Clinical Centers (some of which are consortia of two or more centers) with cooperative agreements from the NHLBI to participate in the TMH Network.  Additional non-Core Centers may also participate in TMH Network trials through subcontracts with the DCC.
