Uncontrolled hemorrhage of deep, narrow and non-compressible perforating wounds is responsible for many trauma deaths. In this work, a novel biodegradable hemostatic sponge based on thermosensitive carboxymethyl chitin was prepared via simple cryo-regeneration process without using any crosslinkers. The collagen and polydopamine were added to further enhance mechanical and hemostatic properties of the sponge. All the carboxymethyl chitin based sponges showed high strength with excellent water/blood-triggered shape memory property, and the highest compressive fracture wet-strength could reach about 291.2 kPa, which was almost higher than those of many reported biodegradable hemostatic sponges pre-swelled in water. More importantly, the carboxymethyl chitin-collagen-polydopamine sponges displayed much better blood-clotting capacity and superior hemostasis performance than gauze and clinically used collagen sponge iRegene in vitro and in the rat liver perforating wound model. This study revealed a facile strategy to construct the effective carboxymethyl chitin based hemostatic sponges for the deep and non-compressible perforating wound.

Chitosan-based materials are known for their excellent biocompatibility and inherent hemostatic properties. However, their hemostatic efficiency is significantly affected by poor wettability and mechanical strength. Herein, we developed a novel hemostatic super elastic sponge from mussel-inspired chitosan modified with long alkyl and catechol functional groups (HMCC) via a simple freezing-drying procedure.

This study aims to investigate the differences in hemostatic efficacy and patient comfort between an innovative domestically produced biodegradable nasal packing sponge and a traditional absorbent sponge following endoscopic nasal surgery. A prospective, randomized controlled trial design was utilized, including 30 patients who were divided into two groups according to random allocation, each receiving one of the two types of nasal packing. The study assessed the hemostatic efficacy, comfort, and safety of the materials by comparing the rates of no bleeding within 24 hours after packing, re-bleeding rates after 48 hours, pain ratings in the head and nasal areas, scores on a visual analog scale for nasal ocular symptoms, and safety indicators between the two groups.

Globally, traumatic injuries and severe hemorrhagic wounds resulting from natural disasters, wars, traffic accidents, and operation rooms, especially during birth, are among the most difficult humanitarian and economic problems. Thus, the priority in emergency medical treatment is reducing unexpected blood loss, which can significantly influence a patient's rescue and recovery speed. For the immediate cessation of bleeding in severe hemorrhagic wounds and to speed up their healing, environmentally friendly γ-ionizing irradiation technology was used to develop innovative natural-based hydrogels impregnated with traditional medicinal plant extracts (MPE) with proven hemostatic and bactericidal potential as potential dressings for hemostasis, infection control, and wound healing.

In this study, we designed a fusion protein, rhCR, by combining human collagen with the self-assembling peptide RADA-16 using genetic engineering technology. The rhCR protein was successfully expressed in . The rhCR can self-assemble into a three-dimensional nanofiber network under physiological conditions.
