HemoStyp®

HemoStyp® is bioabsorbable hemostatic gauze formed from oxidized regenerated cellulose. It is registered with the FDA to help control bleeding from open wounds and body cavities.
Cellulose molecules can be found in the cellular structure of virtually all plant matter, which makes cellulose one of the most abundant organic compounds on earth.
Because of its purity and the fact that it degrades rapidly into biocompatible end products (glucose, water), HemoStyp will not cause complications or adversely affect wound healing.
HemoStyp® begins to control bleeding almost instantly when applied to a cut or open wound. It will effectively control most types of bleeding including: Arterial, Veinal, and Capillary Injuries; Nose Bleeds; Post Dialysis Treatment; Abrasions, Lacerations, and Major Cuts; Dental Procedures; and Puncture Wounds.
Typical gauze products perform like a scab to prevent further bleeding. This usually requires direct pressure, gauze saturation, and drying. When the bleeding finally stops, the gauze must be removed in order to prevent complications. As the gauze is removed, bleeding frequently begins again when the newly formed scab is stressed.
HemoStyp expands rapidly as it absorbs blood. As it expands, it unites with platelets and the clot to form a “plug”, which adheres to the wound and closes off blood vessels. Finally, it converts to a gel and dissolves to glucose and water.
Once HemoStyp has dissolved, any residue can be easily removed with water or saline or left in place to be absorbed. The clot is not compromised and the risk of re-bleeding is reduced significantly.
HemoStyp is an all natural product that contains no harmful chemicals or animal by-products. There are no known side effects or complications associated with its use and no discomfort from application or removal. It is hypoallergenic and bacteriostatic.
HemoStyp does not have to be removed from the wound. Any residue is easily removed with saline or can be left in the wound to be absorbed.
HemoStyp is ready to use right from the package. No need to mix components or cut product to size. Available in multiple sizes and configurations.
HemoStyp is easy to apply – simply open sterile pouch, fold to best cover the bleeding surface, and apply with slight pressure
HemoStyp is cost effective and safe to use. Plant based source of raw material vs. competitive products which are animal based.
HemoStyp eliminates the waste management issues associated with traditional gauze products.
