WoundClot™ Pre-Hospital Trauma Gauze (Hemostatic Dressing) - Advanced Bleeding Control CE & FDA Approved

WoundClot™ Trauma Gauze is a next-generation hemostatic gauze intended for bleeding control of traumatic wounds, including moderate to severe bleeding. For use by trained emergency responders.

• Sterile, trauma gauze (hemostatic dressing) for control of traumatic bleeding.
• Stops moderate to severe bleeding, by promoting rapid coagulation, for use by trained emergency responders only.
• The only hemostatic gauze that contains a unique gel that adheres the product to the tissue.
• The liquid uptake capabilities: over 2500 times its own weight.
• Made in Israel, by CSC Ltd; CE & FDA approved.

How It Works

When WoundClot™ Trauma gauze is applied to the site of bleeding, it rapidly converts from a dry flexible gauze to a thick, tenacious, expanding 3D gel matrix. This stable, strong, and pliant gel structure enables rapid and stable hemostasis to be achieved utilizing several mechanisms of action:

Absorption - WoundClot™ Trauma absorbs up to 2,500% of its weight in blood and remains actively absorbent for up to 24 hours.

Aggregation - WoundClot™’s 3D gel matrix enables the concentration of platelets, red blood cells, and clotting factors, creating an environment conducive to clotting.

Adhesion - WoundClot™’s pliant 3D gel matrix adheres to surrounding tissues in the wound and will not be dislodged by patient movement, wound manipulation, or high-pressure bleeding.

Activation - “WoundClot™’s advanced functional molecular groups stimulate the coagulation process by converting Plasma Thromboplastin Antecedent or PTA (XI) and Hageman (XII) clotting factors from inactive to active (XIa and XIIa).” To WoundClot™’s advanced functional molecular groups stimulate the coagulation process, enabling rapid and stable hemostasis to be achieved.

WoundClot Trauma is a new-generation revolutionary hemostatic gauze product. It is applied quickly and easily to a wound, where WoundClot Trauma encounters blood and converts into a unique, patented 3D gel matrix.

• Achieving rapid and stable hemostasis by expanding, and adhering to wound, even in the presence of   high-pressure bleeding.

• Absorbing up to 25 times its initial weight in blood and effective for up to 24 hours in the wound.

• Rapid activation of clotting factors to stop capillary, venous, and arterial bleeding. Great for the injured WoundClot Trauma saves lives and improves outcomes of the injured.

• High safety profile; hypoallergenic, with no contraindications or toxicities.

• Effective for patients with coagulopathy, anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy.

• Easily removed, with minimal pain and damage. Great for first responders and medical personnel WoundClot Trauma saves the precious time of first responders and medical personnel.

• Easy to apply; no manual pressure required once applied.

• Protects wounds and stops bleeding for up to 24 hours.

• Easy to remove; without causing rebleeding. Great for healthcare organizations WoundClot Trauma helps healthcare organizations achieve their objectives.

• Minimal training required.

• CE Class IIb and FDA approved.

WHAT IS WOUNDCLOT™ MADE FROM?

WoundClot™ is made from cellulose, a natural fiber product. WoundClot™ is the only Non Oxidized, Non-Regenerated Cellulose Structure (NONRCS) product in world. Other Hemostatics made from cellulose are manufactured utilizing a obsolete method that breaks down cellulose by oxidization, decreasing the product’s ability to absorb blood, adhere to wound surfaces, and create an environment that is conducive to achieving hemostasis.

HOW DOES WOUNDCLOT™ WORK?
Unlike any other hemostatic product available today, WoundClot™ has multiple mechanisms of action. When WoundClot™’s patented non-oxidized regenerated cellulosic structure contacts blood, it converts into a thick, tenacious, expanding gel, adhering to wound surfaces. WoundClot™ does not require the application of manual pressure to be effective. WoundClot™ is highly absorbent and will absorb up to 2,500% its weight in fluid. It also remains actively absorbent for up to 24 hours. Additionally, Core Scientific has engineered specific functional molecular groups into WoundClot™ that will activate 2 key clotting factors. WoundClot™ has a high safety profile and can be used anywhere on the body and requires little to no training to utilize effectively.

More Information:

The WoundClot Gauze, is a single use, sterile and bio absorbable medical device, made from regenerated cellulose, which can be fabricated into a variety of forms to suit a variety of wounds in the control of bleeding. The WoundClot is a water-soluble gauze, based on cellulosic structure. Stops moderate to severe bleeding, by promoting rapid coagulation.
Upon application and contact with blood, the product’s molecular structure changes to form a gelatinous membrane, which adheres to the wound creating a mechanical barrier to immediately reduce blood flow. The product’s unique gel utilizes the hydration forces between the mucosal layer and itself which results in a strong physical attraction that leads to the adherence of the product to the tissue. The stronger the bleeding pressures in the wound, the stronger the attraction. Next, platelets from the injury attach to the gauze by inter-molecular forces to form a stable membrane on the wound site, which can withstand severe arterial and venous blood flow for hours. This dramatically reduces the flow of blood from the wound. The liquid uptake capabilities of WoundClot are over 2500 times its own weight.
Specific molecular groups, created in the manufacturing process, are then dispersed during gel formation to activate various coagulation factors in the blood, thus helping to form a physiologically natural fibrin clot in the wound.
After bleeding has stopped, the remaining residual membrane can be irrigated out of the wound safely without pulling on soft tissue or the existing clot. Wound clot can be easily removed, if desired, as one piece without disrupting the clot already formed.
The formed biological cloth within the product after wound clot application can be clearly seen, unlike other common products in the market. For use by trained emergency responders only.
