摘要:
A device for promoting the clotting of blood comprises a clay material in particle form and a receptacle for containing the clay material. At least a portion of the receptacle is defined by a mesh. Another device comprises a gauze substrate and a clay material disposed on the gauze substrate. Another device is a bandage comprising a substrate, a mesh mounted on the substrate, and particles of a clay material retained in the mesh. A hemostatic sponge comprises a substrate, a hemostatic material disposed on a first surface of the substrate, and a release agent disposed on a second surface of the substrate. The release agent is disposed on the wound-contacting surface of the substrate. When treating a bleeding wound, application of the hemostatic sponge causes at least a portion of the hemostatic material to come into contact with blood through the release agent and through the substrate.

A method for decreasing the time it takes for a wound to heal includes applying hemostatic agent to the wound, inflaming tissue surrounding the wound to facilitate the deposition of fibroblast, thereby accelerating the subsequent contraction of the wound and the onset of the proliferative healing stage, and causing the re-epithelization of the tissue at a faster rate than if no hemostatic agent was applied. A method for promoting the healing of a bleeding wound includes coating a hemostatic agent onto a substrate, applying the substrate to the bleeding wound so that an effective amount of the hemostatic agent is applied to the wound, inflaming the tissue, and causing the re-epithelization of the tissue at a faster rate than if no hemostatic agent was applied. In at least some methods, a clotting cascade and platelet aggregation within the bleeding wound is accelerated, and blood loss from the wound is decreased.
摘要:
A composition for promoting hemostasis is defined by a substrate in particle or pellet form and a hemostatic agent disposed on the substrate such that when using the composition to treat a bleeding wound, contacting the bleeding wound with the hemostatic agent causes blood to clot. The hemostatic agent may be a zeolite, bioactive glass, siliceous oxide, clay, biological hemostatic material, diatomaceous earth, or a combination of the foregoing. The substrate may be clay, glass, bioactive glass, diatomaceous earth, wax, polymer, plastic, metal, or a combination of the foregoing. A method of fabricating a hemostatic composition includes providing a substrate and a material having hemostatic characteristics. The hemostatic composition is fabricated by providing a material to operate as a carrier for the hemostatic material. The material is formed into particles or pellets. The material having hemostatic properties is applied or coated onto the particles of the carrier material.

An apparatus for promoting the clotting of blood and controlling bleeding comprises a receptacle for retaining blood clotting material in particulate form therein. A pad for controlling bleeding comprises a mesh structure and a support attached to the mesh structure to facilitate the application of pressure to the pad and the wound. A bandage applicable to a bleeding wound comprises a mesh structure and a flexible substrate attached to the mesh structure, the substrate being a cloth or plastic member that may be adhesively attachable to cover a wound. In any embodiment, at least a portion of the receptacle or mesh structure is defined by a mesh having openings therein, and at least a portion of the particulate blood clotting material is in direct contact with blood. The mesh may include a zeolite powder impregnated or otherwise incorporated therein.

A hemostatic device for promoting the dotting of blood includes a gauze substrate, a clay material disposed on the gauze substrate, and also a polyol such as glycerol or the like disposed on the gauze substrate to bind the clay material. When the device is used to treat a bleeding wound, at least a portion of the clay material comes into contact with blood emanating from the wound to cause the clotting. A bandage that can be applied to a bleeding wound to promote the clotting of blood includes a flexible substrate and a gauze substrate mounted thereon. The gauze substrate includes a clay material and a polyol. A hemostatic sponge also includes a gauze substrate and a dispersion of hemostatic material and a polyol on a first surface of the substrate.
