RESORBABLE HEMOSTATIC AGENT

摘要

A resorbable hemostatic agent comprising a delivery component, that aids in the delivery to the wound site, and an active hemostatic component that performs a role in coagulation, controls bleeding in solid tissue, and does not delay or interfere with healing is described. The viscosity of this resorbable hemostatic agent can be changed to allow for easy application at a range of temperatures. The resorbable hemostatic agent of the invention provides a biodegradable, biocompatible hemostatic agent which effectively controls bleeding in bone and other dense tissue without interfering with the subsequent healing of the tissue.
