BloodSTOP® is a natural, biocompatible, non-irritating, animal-free material that adheres to a wound, absorbs blood, stops bleeding, and forms a protective layer to create an environment for wound healing. Its water solubility allows it to be rinsed off without disruption to the clotted surface.
BloodSTOP in Medical and Surgical Applications
BloodSTOP® for Medical Use
BloodSTOP hemostatic products are indicated for medical emergency and therapeutic use in the control of bleeding from the skin and other surface wounds where fast temporary hemostasis is required. When applied to a wound, BloodSTOP and BloodSTOP iX quickly absorb blood and exudates, transform into a gel to seal the wound with a protective transparent layer, bind and activate platelets, provide support for clot formation, and create an environment for wound healing. Each individually-wrapped, sterile piece is composed of regenerated natural plant fiber cellulose, which is oxidized and etherized to make a hydrophilic, highly absorbent, water soluble, non-irritating, bioresorbable matrix.

“As a registered nurse working primarily with dialysis procedures, I have had great experience with BloodSTOP. I was always concerned about how to stop the bleeding from a patient’s exit site and catheter. BloodSTOP stops the bleeding and puts my mind at ease.”
