Dressing Material Hemostatic

Hemostatic dressings are means used to stop bleeding. They can be made from biological or synthetic materials. Biological materials such as fibrin or thrombin are obtained from the patient's blood. Synthetic materials can be made from a polymer that has the property of binding and holding blood.

Hemostatic materials are used to treat wounds and injuries that may cause bleeding. They help stop bleeding and prevent blood loss. These materials can also be used to close large wounds or skin breaks.

One of the most common hemostatic materials is fibrin film. It consists of proteins that are formed in the blood during injury. A fibrin film covers the wound and stops bleeding. It also helps protect the wound from infection.

Another common hemostatic material is the hemostatic sponge. It consists of a polymer and contains hemostatic agents. A hemostatic sponge can be used to stop bleeding from a wound or to close a large wound.

It is important to note that dressings can be dangerous if not used correctly. For example, fibrin can cause allergic reactions in some people. Therefore, before using hemostatic material, you should consult your doctor.



Hemostatics are dressings designed to stop or reduce the intensity of bleeding. They belong to the group of drugs - hemostatic drugs. They are often called “blood loss medications.” The mechanism of their action is directly related to the process of blood clotting and aggregation (sticking together) of blood cells. According to their mode of action they are:

• natural (fibrin, hemostatic sponge, collagen) – made from human tissue of animal or plant origin; • synthetic (alpha-aminocaproic acid – aminocaprone, calcium heparin, calcium chloride) –
