Abstract:
A composition for in situ formation and/or expansion of a polymer- based hemostatic agent to control bleeding includes a suitable amount of a polymer or polymer-forming component, hydrogen peroxide or chemical(s) capable of forming hydrogen peroxide, or a combination of both, and a decomposing agent for hydrogen peroxide. The decomposing agent includes an endogenously or exogenously supplied catalyst (other than catalase), or both, and/or the polymer or polymer-forming component.

Abstract:
Two siloxane-based mixtures combine to form a soft or semi-solid matrix for forming an artificial blockage to control bleeding, particularly moderate to severe bleeding. The first component includes a homogeneous mixture or solution that includes a polymeric matrix, a surfactant, filler(s) and metal compound(s). The second component includes a homogeneous mixture or solution that includes a polymer(s), a filler(s), a surfactant, and hydrogen peroxide. The combination of the two components is carried out with adequate mixing using mechanical and micro- kinetic mixing mechanisms and can be performed in a field-ready delivery device.
