Abstract
Spinal surgery can be associated with significant intraoperative blood loss which may lead to various complications. As the number of patients undergoing spinal surgery increases over time, accurate and effective hemostasis becomes critically important. Despite various surgical hemostatic techniques, conventional interventions such as compression, suture, ligation, and heat-generating cautery, are not suitable for osseous and epidural venous plexus bleeding during spinal procedures. Therefore, a variety of hemostatic agents have been developed to promote hemostasis. As they differ in terms of mechanism, form, application and potential adverse reactions, it is important to understand the natural features of existing agents. Here we comprehensively review currently available topical hemostatic agents from different sources and summarize their mechanisms of action, applications, and current or potential utilization in spinal surgery. We found hemostatic agents from different sources exert hemostatic actions through different mechanisms. In addition, topical hemostatic agents play various roles in spinal surgery including as hemostatic agent, dura mater repair, drug-carrier, skin closure, and fibrosis prevention. Compressive neurological complications are the most common complications of these hemostatic agents. Therefore, optimal use in spinal environments should match their features, indications, and efficacy with clinical conditions.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2024; 60:278. [PMID: 38399565 PMCID: PMC10889996 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60020278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Postoperative bleeding is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality following liver resection. Therefore, it is crucial to minimize bleeding during liver resection and effectively manage it when it occurs. Arista® AH (Becton, Dickinson and Company, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) is a microporous polysaccharide hemosphere (MPH), a new plant-derived polysaccharide powder hemostat that can be applied to the entire surgical field. This study prospectively assessed the effectiveness of Arista for bleeding control when applied intraoperatively to the liver resection surface. Materials and Methods: Data were collected at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital for patients who underwent liver resection owing to malignant hepatocellular carcinoma or benign liver diseases. We compared the outcomes between 45 patients managed with Arista® AH (data were prospectively collected between September 2022 and May 2023) and 156 patients managed without the use of Arista® AH (data were retrospectively collected between January 2021 and December 2021). Results: There were no significant differences in patient characteristics between the two groups. The estimated blood loss (EBL) was significantly lower in the Arista® AH group compared with the control group (495.56 ± 672.7 mL vs. 691.9 ± 777.5 mL, p = 0.049). The mean postoperative hospital stay was significantly shorter in the Arista® AH group (5.93 ± 1.88 days vs. 6.94 ± 4.17 days, p = 0.024). The time to Jackson-Pratt drain removal was also significantly shorter in the Arista® AH group (4.64 ± 1.31 days vs. 5.30 ± 2.87 days, p = 0.030). The patient subgroup was divided into four categories based on the type of resection and the presence or absence of cirrhosis. Within the subgroup of major resections in non-cirrhotic patients, the Arista® AH group demonstrated significantly better outcomes compared to the control group, showed lower EBL, reduced need for blood transfusions, decreased volume of drain fluid collected within 48 h, earlier removal of drains, and shorter hospital stays. In contrast, for the other subgroups such as minor resection (both non-cirrhotic and cirrhotic) and major resection with cirrhosis, the differences between the Arista® AH and control groups in various parameters like EBL, blood transfusion rates, drain fluid volume, time to drain removal, and duration of hospital stay were not statistically significant. Conclusions: Arista® AH significantly improved intraoperative blood management and postoperative recovery in patients undergoing liver resection, particularly in non-cirrhotic patients who underwent major resection.

Abstract
Relapse and unresectability have become the main obstacle for further improving hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment effect. Currently, single therapy for HCC in clinical practice is limited by postoperative recurrence, intraoperative blood loss and poor patient outcomes. Multidisciplinary therapy has been recognized as the key to improving the long-term survival rate for HCC. However, the clinical application of HCC synthetic therapy is restricted by single functional biomaterials. In this study, a magnetic nanocomposite hydrogel (CG-IM) with iron oxide nanoparticle-loaded mica nanosheets (Iron oxide nanoparticles@Mica, IM) is reported. This biocompatible magnetic hydrogel integrated high injectability, magnetocaloric property, mechanical robustness, wet adhesion, and hemostasis, leading to efficient HCC multidisciplinary therapies including postoperative tumor margin treatment and percutaneous locoregional ablation. After minimally invasive hepatectomy of HCC, the CG-IM hydrogel can facilely seal the bleeding hepatic margin, followed by magnetic hyperthermia ablation to effectively prevent recurrence. In addition, CG-IM hydrogel can inhibit unresectable HCC by magnetic hyperthermia through the percutaneous intervention under ultrasound guidance.

Randomized controlled trial of new hemostatic material "sodium calcium alginate" in a preclinical model. Surgery 2023; 174:1445-1452. [PMID: 37748975 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2023.08.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 09/27/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The demand for nonbiological hemostatic materials has increased in surgical practice; however, few have sufficient hemostatic efficacy. This study investigated whether optimizing the composition of sodium calcium alginate, which forms a stable gel, improves hemostatic efficacy. METHODS The sodium calcium alginate was changed for each composition, including powder size, calcium substitution rate, molecular weight, and mannuronic/guluronic acid ratio. The hemostasis in liver punch-out injury and bleeding was evaluated using swine. For the study, sodium calcium alginate with different compositions was randomly applied to bleeding sites. Previous hemostatic materials, including cellulose and sodium alginate, were used as a control. We investigated hemostasis at 2 and 5 minutes after application. RESULTS Each powder size (53-150 μm, 150-250 μm, 53-250 μm) had a similar hemostatic effect. However, the hemostatic rate was significantly higher in sodium calcium alginate than in previous hemostatic materials (P value < .01). A 74.1% calcium substitution rate had the highest hemostasis at 2 and 5 minutes after application (2 minutes: 100%, 5 minutes: 95.2%). Regarding molecular weight, the hemostatic rate was significantly higher in 333,000 than in 50,000 (2 minutes: 95% vs 70%, 5 minutes: 95% vs 70%, P = .038). Moreover, a 1.9 mannuronic/guluronic acid ratio had the highest hemostasis compared with the 0.4 mannuronic/guluronic acid ratio (2 minutes: 58.8% vs 11.8%, 5 minutes: 58.8% vs 0%, P = .033) CONCLUSION: The composition of sodium calcium alginate with a high hemostatic effect was optimized. This new hemostatic material demonstrated potential usefulness for bleeding during surgery.

Abstract
Uncontrollable bleeding continues to stand as the primary cause of fatalities globally following surgical procedures, traumatic incidents, disasters, and combat scenarios. The swift and efficient management of bleeding through the application of hemostatic agents has the potential to significantly reduce associated mortality rates. One significant drawback of currently available hemostatic products is their susceptibility to bacterial infections at the bleeding site. As this is a prevalent issue that can potentially delay or compromise the healing process, there is an urgent demand for hemostatic agents with antibacterial properties to enhance survival rates. To mitigate the risk of infection at the site of a lesion, we propose an alternative solution in the form of a chitosan-based sponge and antimicrobial agents such as silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and lavender essential oil (LEO). The aim of this work is to provide a new type of hemostatic sponge with an antibacterial barrier against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms: Staphylococcus epidermidis 2018 and Enterococcus faecalis VRE 2566 (Gram-positive strains) and Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 10031 and Escherichia coli ATCC 35218 (Gram-negative strains).

Abstract
PURPOSES Postoperative bleeding remains a life-threatening complication in thyroid surgery. The aim was to assess the efficacy of four different hemostatic agents, Collagen-Fibrinogen-Thrombin Patch (CFTP) in two sizes (3 × 2.5 cm and 9.5 × 4.8 cm), polysaccharide particles (1 g) and Cellulose Gauze (2.5 × 5 cm) on postoperative drainage volume (DV) compared to a control group. METHODS We included from October 2007 until Mai 2011, 150 patients (30 per group) for this monocentric, retrospective case-controlled study. Patients were scheduled for a hemithyroidectomy or thyroidectomy. The primary endpoint was the postoperative DV within the first 24 h, secondary the incidence of adverse events. RESULTS There were no difference in demographic parameters. The mean DV (± SD) was 51.15 (± 36.86) ml in the control, 50.65 (± 42.79) ml in small (3 × 2.5 cm), 25.38 (± 23.99) ml in large CFTP (9.5 × 4.8 cm), 53.11 (± 39.48) ml in the polysaccharide particles and 48.94 (± 30.59) ml in the cellulose gauze group. DV was significantly reduced with the large CFTP (p < 0.05) compared to all other groups. There were no adverse events. CONCLUSIONS We were able to demonstrate a significant reduction in the DV for the large CFTP group compared to the other collectives. Although this as being associated with not inconsiderable costs and we would only recommend its use for high-risk patients only.

Abstract
This network meta-analysis was done to thoroughly evaluate the available literature on the use of different hemostatic agents for dental extraction in patients under oral antithrombotic therapy, aiming to identify the agent with the best/worst performance in bleeding control. Considering that such patients have a higher risk of bleeding, choosing the right hemostatic is essential. Twenty-three randomized clinical trials articles were included after completing the literature search. Cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive showed a reduction in the odds of postoperative bleeding events compared with conventional methods (i.e., gauze/cotton pressure, sutures), with a tendency toward a statistical significance (OR 0.03, P = 0.051). Tranexamic acid was the only agent that demonstrated a significantly lower risk of developing postoperative bleeding events (OR 0.27, P = 0.007). Interestingly, chitosan dental dressing and collagen plug had the shortest time to reach hemostasis. However, they ranked last among all hemostatic agents, regarding bleeding events, revealing higher odds than conventional measures. Therefore, it is concluded that the use of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive and tranexamic acid gives favorable results in reducing postoperative bleeding events following dental extractions. Although chitosan dental dressing and collagen exhibited a faster time to reach hemostasis, they led to a higher occurrence of bleeding events.

Abstract
The bleeding problem might seem straightforward, but it involves a plethora of complex biochemical pathways and responses. Hemorrhage control remains one of the leading causes of “preventable deaths” worldwide. The past few decades have seen a wide range of biomaterials and their derivatives targeted to serve as hemostatic agents, but none can be deemed as an ideal solution. In this review, we have highlighted the current diversity in hemostatic agents and their modalities. We have enclosed a comprehensive outlook of the proposed solutions and their clinical performance so far. In addition to these, several promising compositions are still in their infancy or developmental phases. The inclusion of novel upcoming nanocomposites has further widened the potencies of existing formulations as well.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular surgery may be followed by internal bleeding due to inadequate surgical haemostasis, abnormal clotting, or surgical complications. Bleeding ranges from minor, with no transfusion requirement, to massive, requiring multiple blood product transfusions. There are a number of drugs, given systemically or applied locally, which may reduce the need for blood transfusion. OBJECTIVES To assess the effectiveness and safety of anti-fibrinolytic and haemostatic drugs and agents in reducing bleeding and the need for blood transfusion in people undergoing major vascular surgery or vascular procedures with a risk of moderate or severe (> 500 mL) blood loss. SEARCH METHODS We searched: Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials; MEDLINE; Embase; CINAHL, and Transfusion Evidence Library. We also searched the WHO ICTRP and ClinicalTrials.gov trial registries for ongoing and unpublished trials. Searches used a combination of MeSH and free text terms from database inception to 31 March 2022, without restriction on language or publication status. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in adults of drug treatments to reduce bleeding due to major vascular surgery or vascular procedures with a risk of moderate or severe blood loss, which used placebo, usual care or another drug regimen as control. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We used standard Cochrane methods. Our primary outcomes were units of red cells transfused and all-cause mortality. Our secondary outcomes included risk of receiving an allogeneic blood product, risk of reoperation or repeat procedure due to bleeding, risk of a thromboembolic event, risk of a serious adverse event and length of hospital stay. We used GRADE to assess certainty of evidence. MAIN RESULTS We included 22 RCTs with 3393 participants analysed, of which one RCT with 69 participants was reported only in abstract form, with no usable data. Seven RCTs evaluated systemic drug treatments (three aprotinin, two desmopressin, two tranexamic acid) and 15 RCTs evaluated topical drug treatments (drug-containing bioabsorbable dressings or glues), including fibrin, thrombin, collagen, gelatin, synthetic sealants and one investigational new agent. Most trials were conducted in high-income countries and the majority of the trials only included participants undergoing elective surgery. We also identified two ongoing RCTs. We were unable to perform the planned network meta-analysis due to the sparse reporting of outcomes relevant to this review. Systemic drug treatments We identified seven trials of three systemic drugs: aprotinin, desmopressin and tranexamic acid, all with placebo controls. The trials of aprotinin and desmopressin were small with very low-certainty evidence for all of our outcomes. Tranexamic acid versus placebo was the systemic drug comparison with the largest number of participants (2 trials; 1460 participants), both at low risk of bias. The largest of these included a total of 9535 individuals undergoing a number of different higher risk surgeries and reported limited information on the vascular subgroup (1399 participants). Neither trial reported the number of units of red cells transfused per participant up to 30 days. Three outcomes were associated with very low-certainty evidence due to the very wide confidence intervals (CIs) resulting from small study sizes and low number of events. These were: all-cause mortality up to 30 days; number of participants requiring an allogeneic blood transfusion up to 30 days; and risk of requiring a repeat procedure or operation due to bleeding. Tranexamic acid may have no effect on the risk of thromboembolic events up to 30 days (risk ratio (RR) 1.10, 95% CI 0.88 to 1.36; 1 trial, 1360 participants; low-certainty evidence due to imprecision). There is one large ongoing trial (8320 participants) comparing tranexamic acid versus placebo in people undergoing non-cardiac surgery who are at high risk of requiring a red cell transfusion. This aims to complete recruitment in April 2023. This trial has primary outcomes of proportion of participants transfused with red blood cells and incidence of venous thromboembolism (DVT or PE). Topical drug treatments Most trials of topical drug treatments were at high risk of bias due to their open-label design (compared with usual care, or liquids were compared with sponges). All of the trials were small, most were very small, and few reported clinically relevant outcomes in the postoperative period. Fibrin sealant versus usual care was the topical drug comparison with the largest number of participants (5 trials, 784 participants). The five trials that compared fibrin sealant with usual care were all at high risk of bias, due to the open-label trial design with no measures put in place to minimise reporting bias. All of the trials were funded by pharmaceutical companies. None of the five trials reported the number of red cells transfused per participant up to 30 days or the number of participants requiring an allogeneic blood transfusion up to 30 days. The other three outcomes were associated with very low-certainty evidence with wide confidence intervals due to small sample sizes and the low number of events, these were: all-cause mortality up to 30 days; risk of requiring a repeat procedure due to bleeding; and risk of thromboembolic disease up to 30 days. We identified one large trial (500 participants) comparing fibrin sealant versus usual care in participants undergoing abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, which has not yet started recruitment. This trial lists death due to arterial disease and reintervention rates as primary outcomes. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Because of a lack of data, we are uncertain whether any systemic or topical treatments used to reduce bleeding due to major vascular surgery have an effect on: all-cause mortality up to 30 days; risk of requiring a repeat procedure or operation due to bleeding; number of red cells transfused per participant up to 30 days or the number of participants requiring an allogeneic blood transfusion up to 30 days. There may be no effect of tranexamic acid on the risk of thromboembolic events up to 30 days, this is important as there has been concern that this risk may be increased. Trials with sample size targets of thousands of participants and clinically relevant outcomes are needed, and we look forward to seeing the results of the ongoing trials in the future.

Abstract
Hemorrhage control is vital for clinical outcomes after surgical treatment and pre-hospital trauma injuries. Numerous biomaterials have been investigated to control surgical and traumatic bleeding. In this study, for the first time, perlite was introduced as an aluminosilicate biomaterial and compared with other ceramics such as kaolin and bentonite in terms of morphology, cytotoxicity, mutagenicity, and hemostatic evaluations. Cellular studies showed that perlite has excellent viability, good cell adhesion, and high anti-mutagenicity. Coagulation results demonstrated that the shortest clotting time (140 seconds with a concentration of 50 mg mL-1) was obtained for perlite samples compared to other samples. Therefore, perlite seems most efficient as a biocompatible ceramic for hemorrhage control and other biomaterial designs.

Abstract
Most injuries are accompanied by acute bleeding. Hemostasis is necessary to relieve pain and reduce mortality in these accidents. In recent years, the traditional hemostatic materials, including inorganic, protein-based, polysaccharide-based and synthetic materials have been widely used in the clinic. The most prominent of these are biodegradable collagen sponges (Helistat®, United States), gelatin sponges (Ethicon®, SURGIFOAM®, United States), chitosan (AllaQuixTM, ChitoSAMTM, United States), cellulose (Tabotamp®, SURGICEL®, United States), and the newly investigated extracellular matrix gels, etc. Although these materials have excellent hemostatic properties, they also have their advantages and disadvantages. In this review, the performance characteristics, hemostatic effects, applications and hemostatic mechanisms of various biomaterials mentioned above are presented, followed by several strategies to improve hemostasis, including modification of single materials, blending of multiple materials, design of self-assembled peptides and their hybrid materials. Finally, the exploration of more novel hemostatic biomaterials and relative coagulation mechanisms will be essential for future research on hemostatic methods.

Abstract
Currently, uncontrolled bleeding remains a serious problem in emergency, surgical and battlefield environments. Despite the specific properties of available hemostatic agents, sealants, and adhesives, effective hemostasis under wet and dynamic conditions remains a challenge. In recent years, polymeric hydrogels with excellent hemostatic properties have received much attention because of their adjustable mechanical properties, high porosity, and biocompatibility. In this review, to investigate the role of hydrogels in hemostasis, the mechanisms of hydrogel hemostasis and adhesion are firstly elucidated, the adhesion design strategies of hemostatic hydrogels in wet environments are briefly introduced, and then, based on a comprehensive literature review, the studies and in vivo applications of wet-adhesive hemostatic hydrogels in different environments are summarized, and the improvement directions of such hydrogels in future studies are proposed.

A new hemostatic agent composed of Zn2+-enriched Ca2+ alginate activates vascular endothelial cells in vitro and promotes tissue repair in vivo. Bioact Mater 2022; 18:368-382.

Abstract
To control capillary bleeding, surgeons may use absorbable hemostatic agents, such as Surgicel® and TachoSil®. Due to their slow resorption, their persistence in situ can have a negative impact on tissue repair in the resected organ. To avoid complications and obtain a hemostatic agent that promotes tissue repair, a zinc-supplemented calcium alginate compress was developed: HEMO-IONIC®. This compress is non-absorbable and is therefore removed once hemostasis has been achieved. After demonstrating the hemostatic efficacy and stability of the blood clot obtained with HEMO-IONIC, the impact of Surgicel, TachoSil, and HEMO-IONIC on cell activation and tissue repair were compared (i) in vitro on endothelial cells, which are essential to tissue repair, and (ii) in vivo in a mouse skin excision model. In vitro, only HEMO-IONIC maintained the phenotypic and functional properties of endothelial cells and induced their migration. In comparison, Surgicel was found to be highly cytotoxic, and TachoSil inhibited endothelial cell migration. In vivo, only HEMO-IONIC increased angiogenesis, the recruitment of cells essential to tissue repair (macrophages, fibroblasts, and epithelial cells), and accelerated maturation of the extracellular matrix. These results demonstrate that a zinc-supplemented calcium alginate, HEMO-IONIC, applied for 10 min at the end of surgery and then removed has a long-term positive effect on all phases of tissue repair. A new Zn2+ enriched Ca2+ alginate hemostatic agent, HEMO-IONIC, has been developed. Non-absorbable, it achieves hemostasis with no foreign bodies left in the wound. HEMO-IONIC stimulates endothelial cell migration in vitro and angiogenesis in vivo. HEMO-IONIC, removed 10 min after application, promotes all stages of tissue repair.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A breast biopsy marker is a very small object that is introduced into the breast to serve as a tissue marker. The placement of a breast marker following a biopsy or to mark an abnormality in the breast has become standard practice in the clinical setting. Breast biopsy markers offer a wide range of benefits which includes the prevention of re-biopsy of a benign tumor, differentiating multiple lesions within the breast, evaluation of the extent of a tumor, and increased precision during surgery. AREAS COVERED This review article presents a range of breast biopsy markers used in clinical practice. First, an overview of the necessity of breast markers in healthy breast management. Second, it summarizes the diversity in composition, shape, unique properties and features, and bio-absorbable carriers of breast biopsy markers. Finally, it also discusses the possible use of clinically approved breast biopsy markers in various scenarios and their implications. EXPERT OPINION This review serves as a guide in the selection of an appropriate breast marker. We believe that some of the common drawbacks associated with current breast biopsy markers can be overcome by developing novel polymer-metal and composite-based breast biopsy markers.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) exhibits resistance to conventional treatments due to the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs), causing postsurgical relapse and a dismal prognosis. Umbilical cord blood natural killer (UCB-NK) cell-based immunotherapy represents a promising strategy for cancer treatment. However, its therapeutic efficacy is greatly restrained by downregulation of the NK cell activation ligand MHC class I-related chain A/B (MICA/B) and autophagy-mediated degradation of NK cell-derived granzyme B (GZMB) in CSCs. Herein, it is demonstrated that suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) epigenetically downregulates let-7e-5p and miR-615-3p to increase MICA/B expression and that 3-methyl adenine (3MA) inhibits autophagy-mediated GZMB degradation, thereby sensitizing breast CSCs to UCB-NK cells. Then, an injectable hydrogel is designed to codeliver SAHA and 3MA to enhance UCB-NK cell infusion efficacy in TNBC. The hydrogel precursors can be smoothly injected into the tumor resection bed and form a stable gel in situ, allowing for a pH-sensitive sustained release of SAHA and 3MA. Moreover, UCB-NK cell infusion in combination with the hydrogel efficiently controls postsurgical relapse of TNBC. In addition, the hydrogel exhibits good hemostasis and wound-healing functions. Therefore, the work provides proof of concept that an injectable epigenetic autophagic modulatory hydrogel augments UCB-NK cell therapy to combat postsurgical relapse of TNBC.

Abstract
Tumor recurrence is a critical conundrum in the postoperative therapy, on account of severe bleeding with disseminated tumor cells, residual tumor cells, and the rich nutrient and oxygen supply transported to tumors by the abundant blood vessels. Biodegradable drug-loaded implants, inserted in the resection cavity right away upon the surgery, possess bleeding prevention and efficient chemotherapeutic capabilities, considered to be a promising strategy to efficiently inhibit the recurrence of the solid tumor. Here, we developed a sandwich-like composite consisting of the combretastatin A4 (CA4)-loaded 3D-printed scaffold and doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded electrospun fiber (Scaffold-CA4@Fiber-DOX), presenting hemostatic, chemotherapeutic, and antibacterial potencies. The lyophilized 3D-printed scaffold with a porous structure rapidly absorbed and clotted the blood cells and disseminated tumor cells to prevent bleeding and tumor metastasis. Subsequently, the preferentially released CA4 from the scaffold disrupted the microtubules of the vascular endothelial cell, resulting in vascular deformation and consequent insufficient nutrient supply to the solid tumor. The sustained release of DOX from the sandwiched electrospun fiber dramatically inhibited the peripheral tumor cell proliferation. This all-in-one multifunctional implant system, combining efficient vascular disruption and chemotherapy, provides a promising strategy for postoperative tumor therapy.

Engineered Molecular Therapeutics Targeting Fibrin and the Coagulation System: a Biophysical Perspective. Biophys Rev 2022; 14:427-461. [PMID: 35399372 PMCID: PMC8984085 DOI: 10.1007/s12551-022-00950-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 03/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The coagulation cascade represents a sophisticated and highly choreographed series of molecular events taking place in the blood with important clinical implications. One key player in coagulation is fibrinogen, a highly abundant soluble blood protein that is processed by thrombin proteases at wound sites, triggering self-assembly of an insoluble protein hydrogel known as a fibrin clot. By forming the key protein component of blood clots, fibrin acts as a structural biomaterial with biophysical properties well suited to its role inhibiting fluid flow and maintaining hemostasis. Based on its clinical importance, fibrin is being investigated as a potentially valuable molecular target in the development of coagulation therapies. In this topical review, we summarize our current understanding of the coagulation cascade from a molecular, structural and biophysical perspective. We highlight single-molecule studies on proteins involved in blood coagulation and report on the current state of the art in directed evolution and molecular engineering of fibrin-targeted proteins and polymers for modulating coagulation. This biophysical overview will help acclimatize newcomers to the field and catalyze interdisciplinary work in biomolecular engineering toward the development of new therapies targeting fibrin and the coagulation system.

Abstract
Current surgical single modality treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were restricted by recurrence, blood loss, significant trauma, and poor prognostic. Although multidisciplinary strategies for HCC treatment have been highly recommended by the clinical guidelines, there was limited choice of materials and treatments. Herein, we reported an in situ formed magnetic hydrogel with promising bioapplicable thermal-responsiveness, strong adhesion in wet conditions, high magnetic hyperthermia, and biocompatibility, leading to efficient HCC multidisciplinary treatment including postoperative treatment and transarterial embolization therapy. In vivo results indicated that this hydrogel could reduce the postoperative recurrence rate. The hemostatic ability of the thermal-responsive hydrogel was further demonstrated in both the liver scratch model and liver tumor resection. Computed tomography imaging suggested that the hydrogel could completely embolize the arterial vessels of rabbit liver tumor by vascular intervention operation, which could serve as multidisciplinary responsive materials to external magnetic field and body temperature for HCC treatment.

Abstract
Bleeding in spine surgery is a common occurrence but when bleeding is uncontrolled the consequences can be severe due to the potential for spinal cord compression and damage to the central nervous system. There are many factors that influence bleeding during spine surgery including patient factors and those related to the type of surgery and the surgical approach to bleeding. There are a range of methods that can be employed to both reduce the risk of bleeding and achieve hemostasis, one of which is the adjunct use of hemostatic agents. Hemostatic agents are available in a variety of forms and materials and with considerable variation in cost, but specific evidence to support their use in spine surgery is sparse. A literature review was conducted to identify the pre-, peri-, and postsurgical considerations around bleeding in spine surgery. The review generated a set of recommendations that were discussed and ratified by a wider expert group of spine surgeons. The results are intended to provide a practical guide to the selection of hemostats for specific bleeding situations that may be encountered in spine surgery.

Abstract
Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is one of the treatment modalities used in end-stage renal disease. The most common cause of failure is catheter-related complications. Dialysate leak represents a major noninfectious complication of PD. Here, we aimed to present the results of patients who had pericatheter dialysate leak following PD catheterization and who were administered a hemostatic agent (HaemoCer Plus, BioCer, Germany) around the catheter and the tunneled segment under the subcutaneous tissue under local anesthesia. We performed a local procedure on six patients in total. No major complications developed in any of the patients at postoperative follow-up. Five patients started to receive PD uneventfully within postoperative 3 days with no dialysate leak. We believe that this practice is effective in the management of peritoneal dialysate leak. The hemostatic agents administered in the present study can manage dialysate leak and ensure safe use of the catheter.

Abstract
Laparoscopic surgery has many advantages over open surgery. At the same time, it is not without its risks. In this review, we discuss steps that could enhance the safety of laparoscopic surgery. Some of the important safety considerations are ruling out pregnancy in women of the childbearing age group; advanced discussion with the patient regarding unexpected intraoperative situations, and ensuring appropriate equipment is available. Important perioperative safety considerations include thromboprophylaxis; antibiotic prophylaxis; patient allergies; proper positioning of the patient, stack, and monitor(s); patient appropriate pneumoperitoneum; ergonomic port placement; use of lowest possible intra-abdominal pressure; use of additional five-millimetre (mm) ports as needed; safe use of energy devices and laparoscopic staplers; low threshold for a second opinion; backing out if unsafe to proceed; avoiding hand-over in the middle of the procedure; ensuring all planned procedures have been performed; inclusion of laparoscopic retrieval bags and specimens in the operating count; avoiding 10-15 mm ports for placement of drains; appropriate port closures; and use of long-acting local anaesthetic agents for analgesia. Important postoperative considerations include adequate analgesia; early ambulation; careful attention to early warning scores; and appropriate discharge advice.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare biological compatibility, hemostasis, and adhesion formation between oxidized regenerated cellulose and lyophilized hydrolyzed porcine collagen in liver trauma. METHODS Forty male Wistar rats constituted two groups: group A (oxidized cellulose) and group B (lyophilized hydrolyzed collagen). Standardized liver trauma was made, and the hemostatic agent was applied. Animals in subgroups A7 and B7 were submitted to euthanasia and relaparotomy after seven days, and in subgroups A14 and B14 after 14 days. Macroscopic and microscopic results were evaluated. RESULTS There was no fluid in the cavity in any of the animals, and adhesions were present in all of them. In the analysis after seven days, the adhesions were grades 3 or 4 and consisted of omentum, small intestine, and abdominal wall (p<0.05). In both groups, the mesh was surrounded by a capsule, which was not observed after 14 days. In the evaluation after 14 days, adhesions were grades 2 or 3 (p>0.05). The microscopic examination showed subacute and chronic reactions, in both groups and in both timepoints, with similar frequency. The intensity of fibrosis always presented positive scores. Microabscesses and xanthomatous macrophages were observed in both groups. CONCLUSIONS There was no superiority of one agent over the other.

Abstract
Purpose Various hemostatic agents have been introduced in therapy as postoperative bleeding is a poor prognostic factor for postoperative outcomes. These products can be divided into those that directly promote the hemostatic cascade and those that physically form a barrier by absorbing blood. The latter, powder-type hemostatic agents have the advantages of being inexpensive and more absorbable with less foreign body reactions (FBRs) and are applicable to a relatively wide area. This study was conducted to verify the safety and efficacy of a newly invented polysaccharide product (OOZFIX, Theracion Biomedical), which improves blood absorption and hemostatic effects. Methods Two separate animal experiments were performed. The first evaluated FBRs histologically at 3 days, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks, after implantation of OOZFIX in rats, and the second compared hemostatic performance of OOZFIX and Arista AH (Bard) in the porcine liver punch biopsy model. Results We found minimal FBRs in the 3-day group and no reactions in both the 2-week and 4-week groups after implantation of hemostatic agents. The time to hemostasis of OOZFIX was not significantly different from that of Arista AH (median [interquartile range]: 9 [6–10] minutes vs. 8 [6–10] minutes, respectively; P = 0.522). When comparing the serial bleeding grade tendency, there was no statistical difference between OOZFIX and Arista AH (P = 0.656). Conclusion OOZFIX caused a minimal FBR that disappeared within 2 weeks in vivo, and its hemostatic performance was comparable with that of an existing agent, Arista AH. Further clinical studies are required in the future.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is one of the greatest threats to life on the battlefield, accounting for 50% of total deaths. Nearly 86% of combat deaths occur within the first 30 min after wounding. While external wound injuries can be treated mostly using visual inspection, abdominal or internal hemorrhages are more challenging to treat with regular hemostatic dressings because of deep wounds and points of injury that cannot be located properly. The need to treat trauma wounds from limbs, abdomen, liver, stomach, colon, spleen, arterial, venous, and/or parenchymal hemorrhage accompanied by severe bleeding requires an immediate solution that the first responders can apply to reduce rapid exsanguinations from external wounds, including in military operations. This necessitates the development of a unique, easy-to-use, FDA-approved hemostatic treatment that can deliver the agent in less than 30 s and stop bleeding within the first 1 to 2 min at the point of injury without application of manual pressure on the wounded area.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medical hemostatic biological materials are necessary for the development of the process of preventing and stopping damaged intravascular bleeding. In the process, some red blood cells and white blood cells are trapped in nets. The resulting plug is called a blood clot. This is often a good step in wound healing, but separation of blood clots from blood vessel walls can cause serious health problems. MAIN BODY The advance in the development of hemostatic biomaterials is necessary for biomedical application. Firstly, the historical background of artificial hemostasis has been included and the current research of hemostasis has been included in more detail. Secondly, the current research of hemostasis has been included on the oxidized cellulose-based hemostatic biomaterials such as starch based on composite cross-linking hemostatic networks, hemostatic materials on NHS-esters, hemostatic agent from local materials and biomaterials for hemostatic management. Thirdly, polysaccharide hemostatic materials, bio-inspired adhesive catechol-conjugated chitosan, mesoporous silica and bioactive glasses for improved hemostasis, minimally invasive hemostatic biomaterials and chitosan-base materials for hemostatic application have been included. Fourthly, the biological properties of natural hemostatic agent by plasma technology and the hemostatic agents based on gelatin-microbial transglutaminase mixes have been also included. CONCLUSION Current research on hemostasis includes hemostatic biomaterials such as cellulose-based hemostatic starch based on a complex cross-linked hemostatic network. It also includes polysaccharide hemostatic materials, biomimetic adhesive catechol-binding chitosan, mesoporous silica or physiologically active glass for hemostatic improvement, minimally invasive hemostatic chitosan-based materials, and gelatin-microbial transglutaminase-based hemostatic agents. Future studies should focus on modular combination of hemostatic imitation and reinforcement mechanisms of different materials and technologies to find the optimal system to promote and strengthen active platelet or platelet imitation aggregation in bleeding sites. The second optionally increases the production of thrombin and fiber formation at the site. Third, the formed fibrin biopolymer network has strengthened to reduce thrombosis and amplify hemostasis.

Abstract
Emergent and long-term hemorrhage control is requisite and beneficial for reducing global mortality and postoperative complications (e.g., second bleeding and adverse tissue adhesion). Despite recent advance in injectable hydrogels for hemostasis, achieving rapid gelation, strong tissue-adhesive property and stable mechanical strength under fluid physiological environment is still challenging. Herein, we developed a novel chitosan hydrogel (CCS@gel) via dynamic Schiff base reaction and mussel-inspired catechol chemistry. The hydrogel possessed high gelation rate (<10 s), strong wet adhesiveness, excellent self-healing performance and biocompatibility. More importantly, the CCS@gel exhibited saline-induced contractile performance and mechanical enhancement, promoting its mechanical property in moist internal conditions. In vivo studies demonstrated its superior hemostatic efficacy for diverse anticoagulated visceral and carotid bleeding scenarios, compared to commercialized fibrin glue. The hydrogel-treated rats survived for 8 weeks with minimal inflammation and postoperative adhesion. These results revealed that the promising CCS@gel would be a facile, efficient and safe sealant for clinical hemorrhage control.

Abstract
Disseminated tumor cells in bleeding and residual tumor cells in the resection tumor site are the primary factors that result in tumor recurrence after surgery. Safe and efficient local implantation of the drug depot system into the resection cavity to inhibit tumor recurrence would be of great benefit to reduce the mortality of postoperative patients. Here, a sandwich-like doxorubicin-triptolide-loaded fiber/(chitosan/gelatin) sponge, DTF/CGS, is fabricated, combining hemostatic, antibacterial, and chemotherapeutic capability. The CGS obtained via freeze-drying can efficiently prevent bleeding; meanwhile, the metastatic residual tumor cells are stuck with the clotted absorbed blood. Subsequently, dual drugs released from the electrospun fiber can further kill the stuck tumor cells in CGS and the disseminated tumor cells to significantly inhibit the tumor recurrence. This antitumor recurrence strategy by immediately implanting a multifunctional hybrid sponge for in situ postoperative management may possess great potential for preventing tumor recurrence.

Abstract
Fabrication of 3D composite scaffolds was carried out by lyophilization of variable concentrations of collagen and chitosan gel solutions. Fibrinogen and thrombin aerosol were deposited over the surface of scaffolds to enhance hemostasis and wound healing. Composite scaffolds were characterized using differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and Fourier-transform infrared spectrophotometer to ascertain the aerosol deposition and stability. Scanning electron microscope showed multilayered porosity with pore size of ~30 μm and mushroom-like fibril growth of aerosol. A detailed investigation by surface plasmon resonance confirmed higher binding affinity of collagen toward the human blood platelets and erythrocytes in comparison to chitosan and was found to increase with the increase in blood cell concentration from 480.8 to 886.4 RU for erythrocytes. Scaffolds showed higher binding response for platelets than erythrocytes, while fibrinogen and thrombin showed no or limited interaction. Highest blood sorption of 83 ± 4% was observed in case of aerosol deposited scaffolds. Aerosol deposited scaffolds showed minimum clotting time of 20 ± 3 s and bleeding time of 38 ± 4 s, which was significantly lower compared to the scaffolds without aerosol treatment. Aerosol deposited composite scaffolds with 2:1 concentration of chitosan/collagen showed complete wound contraction by day 14, while 50% was observed in case of the control group. In vivo studies revealed that chitosan had a crucial role in the inflammatory phase, while collagen played an important role in the proliferation and maturation phase. The present study suggests that the fabricated 3D composite scaffolds with bioactive moieties may be a potential candidate for enhanced hemostasis and wound healing applications.

Abstract
Free flow hemostatic agents are dominating over non-flowable hemostats due to their ability to cover asymmetrical wound surfaces of any depth and easily remove excess materials with irrigation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the activation of a coagulation system both in vitro and in vivo. We assessed detailed physical characteristics of a microbial transglutaminase (m-TG) crosslinked thrombin (TB) laden Gelatin (Gel) hemostat sealant in vitro and its hemostatic efficacy for controlling bleeding caused by liver trauma in rats as well as its efficacy for organ regeneration after making a critical defect. The prepared hemostat gel showed almost seven times higher absorbance behavior than a negative control. Thrombogenicity of the prepared gel was determined based on platelet adhesion, whole blood clotting time, and total blood absorption behavior. In vivo blood absorption and hematological parameters were determined in an animal model after implantation. The prepared gel was able to lead to a fast post-operative recovery with a blood absorption at wound defect. High speed of homeostasis was achieved by a fast clotting time in about 1 min.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is the major hindrance over the wound healing, which triggers microbial infections and might provoke traumatic death. Herein, new hemostatic and antibacterial PVA/Kaolin composite sponges were crosslinked using a freeze-thawing approach and boosted by penicillin–streptomycin (Pen-Strep). Physicochemical characteristics of developed membranes were analyzed adopting Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), a thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Furthermore, the impacts of kaolin concentrations on porosity, swelling behavior, gel fraction, and degradation of the membranes were investigated. SEM analyses revealed a spongy-like structure of hydrogels associated with high dispersion of kaolin inside PVA matrix. The thermal characteristics of PVA/Kaolin were significantly ameliorated compared to the prime PVA. Moreover, the results exhibited significant variations of swelling performance, surface roughness and pore capacity due to the alterations of kaolin contents. Besides, the adhesive strength ability was manifestly enhanced for PVA-K0.1 sponge. Biomedical evaluations including antibacterial activity, blood clotting index and thrombogenicity of the membranes were studied. The contact of PVA/Kaolin to blood revealed notable augmentation in blood clotting. Furthermore, the incorporation of kaolin into PVA presented mild diminution in antibacterial activities. Moreover, PVA/Kaolin composites illustrated no cellular toxicity towards fibroblast cells. These remarkable features substantiate that the PVA-K0.1 sponge could be applied as a multifunctional wound dressing.

Abstract
Polymeric tissue adhesives provide versatile materials for wound management and are widely used in a variety of medical settings ranging from minor to life-threatening tissue injuries. Compared to the traditional methods of wound closure (i.e., suturing and stapling), they are relatively easy to use, enable rapid application, and introduce minimal tissue damage. Furthermore, they can act as hemostats to control bleeding and provide a tissue-healing environment at the wound site. Despite their numerous current applications, tissue adhesives still face several limitations and unresolved challenges (e.g., weak adhesion strength and poor mechanical properties) that limit their use, leaving ample room for future improvements. Successful development of next-generation adhesives will likely require a holistic understanding of the chemical and physical properties of the tissue-adhesive interface, fundamental mechanisms of tissue adhesion, and requirements for specific clinical applications. In this review, we discuss a set of rational guidelines for design of adhesives, recent progress in the field along with examples of commercially available adhesives and those under development, tissue-specific considerations, and finally potential functions for future adhesives. Advances in tissue adhesives will open new avenues for wound care and potentially provide potent therapeutics for various medical applications.

Abstract
Uncontrolled bleeding remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality across the entire macrocosm. It refers to excessive loss of blood that occurs inside of body, due to unsuccessful platelet plug formation at the injury site. It is not only limited to the battlefield, but remains the second leading cause of death amongst the civilians, as a result of traumatic injury. Startlingly, there are no effective treatments currently available, to cater the issue of internal bleeding, even though early intervention is of utmost significance in minimizing the mortality rates associated with it. The fatal issue of uncontrolled bleeding is ineffectively being dealt with the use of pressure dressings, tourniquet, and surgical procedures. This is not a practical approach in combat arenas or in emergency situations, where the traumatic injury inflicted is deep inside the body, and cannot be addressed externally, by the application of topical dressings. This review focuses on the traditional hemostatic agents that are used to augment the process of hemostasis, such as mineral zeolites, chitosan based products, biologically active agents, anti-fibrinolytics, absorbable agents, and albumin and glutaraldehyde, as well as the micro- and nano-based hemostatic agents such as synthocytes, thromboerythrocytes, thrombosomes, and the synthetic platelets.

Abstract
It is increasingly essential to develop excellent materials for rapid hemorrhage control. Our previous study showed that centric diatoms such as frustules were superior to QuikClot® in hemostasis, however, related studies in pennate diatoms are still scarce. The morphological and physicochemical properties of pennate diatoms are quite different from those of centric diatoms, meaning that significant differences may also be observed from their hemostatic effects. Thus, the hemostasis effects of four pennate diatom frustules (Cocconeiopsis orthoneoides, Navicula avium, Navicula sp., and Pleurosigma indicum) were investigated in this study. Herein, all diatom frustules demonstrated outstanding hemostasis performance. For example, the in vitro coagulation time of C. orthoneoides (100.33 ± 9.5 s) was 32.4% lower than that of QuikClot®. Meanwhile, the hemostatic times of C. orthoneoides in the rat tail amputation and femoral artery models were 82 s and 180 s, respectively, only around one-half and one-third of the QuikClot® values. Moreover, the blood loss amounts of C. orthoneoides in the rat tail amputation and femoral artery model were 73.4% and 61% less than that of QuikClot®. Besides that, diatom frustules also exhibited favorable biocompatibility (hemolysis ratio <5%, MEFs cell viabilities >80%, and no inflammation). To find out the key factors underlying the hemostatic effect of frustules, Pearson correlation analysis was further performed in this study. The results demonstrated that the coagulation reaction time (R) was negatively correlated with the specific surface area and liquid absorbability but positively with the diatom pore diameter. The angle α, indicating the clot formation rate, was negative to the diatom size and pore diameter. Additionally, MA also showed a negative correlation with the BET value. This study can enrich our knowledge about the application potential of diatoms in the field of bleeding control and is helpful in deepening our understanding about the hemostatic mechanism of frustules.

Abstract
Background When used during surgery, antifibrinolytic hemostatic agents such as lysine analogues are effective at reducing blood loss and the need for transfusions. Despite proven efficacy, use of hemostatic agents remains low during some surgeries. Our objective was to explore surgeon opinions about, and use of lysine analogues in, oncologic surgeries at a large tertiary care academic institution. Methods We administered a survey to surgeons who perform high-transfusion-risk oncologic surgeries at a large academic hospital in Ottawa, Ontario. Design and distribution of the survey followed a modified Dillman method. To ensure that the survey questionnaire was relevant, clear, and concise, we performed informant interviews, cognitive interviews, and pilot-testing. The final survey consisted of 19 questions divided into 3 sections: respondent demographics, use of hemostatic agents, and potential clinical trial opinions. Results Of 28 surgeons, 24 (86%) participated. When asked to indicate the frequency of lysine analogue use, "never" accounted for 46% of the responses, and "rarely" (<10% of the time) accounted for 23% of the responses. Reasons for never using included "unfamiliar with benefits" and "prefer alternatives." Fifteen surgeons (63%) felt that a trial was needed to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of lysine analogues in their cancer field. Conclusions Our survey found that lysine analogues are infrequently used during oncologic surgeries at our institution. Many surgeons are unfamiliar with the benefits and side effects of lysine analogues and, alternatively, use topical hemostatic agents. Our results demonstrate that future trials exploring the efficacy and safety of lysine analogues in oncologic surgery are needed.

Abstract
Postoperative wound repair of solid tumors resection, which is afflicted by the complex tumor microenvironment (TME) and associated with the bacterial infection, is worsening and demands prompt solutions. Meanwhile, the tumor recurrence is frequently seen during the subsequent treatment due to intraoperative bleeding. For effective postoperative cancer therapy, nanoscale carriers occur as innovative and sensitive tools for monitoring the wound state, avoiding bacterial infection, and restraining tumor recurrence. Herein, a multifunctional sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel immobilizing hemoglobin (Hb) and pH-sensitive fluorescent changing carbon quantum dots (CQDs) is rationally designed. The multifunctionalization of obtained alginate@hemoglobin@CQDs hydrogel (SA@Hb@CQDs) simultaneously consists of detection, hemostasis, and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) with monitoring of wound pH based on CQDs, stanching triggered from SA hydrogel, and Fenton reaction induced by Hb. We demonstrated that SA@Hb@CQDs can stop bleeding quickly, collect wound status information in real-time, and avert bacterial infection as well as inhibit local tumor recurrence effectively. Therefore, our work provides a promising combination approach for postoperative tumor therapy.

Abstract
Uncontrolled massive hemorrhage is one of the principal causes of death in trauma emergencies. By using catechol-modified chitosan (CS-C) as the matrix material and β glycerol phosphate (β-GP) as a thermo-sensitive agent, chitosan-based thermo-sensitive hydrogel loading oyster peptides (CS-C/OP/β-GP) were prepared at physiological temperature. The hemostatic performance of CS-C/OP/β-GP hydrogel was tested in vivo and in vitro, and its biological safety was evaluated. The results showed that the in vitro coagulation time and blood coagulation index of CS-C/OP/β-GP hydrogel were better than those of a commercial gelatin sponge. Notably, compared with the gelatin sponge, CS-C/OP/β-GP hydrogel showed that the platelet adhesion and erythrocyte adsorption rates were 38.98% and 95.87% higher, respectively. Additionally, the hemostasis time in mouse liver injury was shortened by 19.5%, and the mass of blood loss in the mouse tail amputation model was reduced by 18.9%. The safety evaluation results demonstrated that CS-C/OP/β-GP had no cytotoxicity to L929 cells, and the hemolysis rates were less than 5% within 1 mg/mL, suggesting good biocompatibility. In conclusion, our results indicate that CS-C/OP/β-GP is expected to be a promising dressing in the field of medical hemostasis.

Abstract
Broad interest in developing new hemostatic technologies arises from unmet needs in mitigating uncontrolled hemorrhage in emergency, surgical, and battlefield settings. Although a variety of hemostats, sealants, and adhesives are available, development of ideal hemostatic compositions that offer a range of remarkable properties including capability to effectively and immediately manage bleeding, excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility, biodegradability, antibacterial effect, and strong tissue adhesion properties, under wet and dynamic conditions, still remains a challenge. Benefiting from tunable mechanical properties, high porosity, biocompatibility, injectability and ease of handling, polymeric hydrogels with outstanding hemostatic properties have been receiving increasing attention over the past several years. In this review, after shedding light on hemostasis and wound healing processes, the most recent progresses in hydrogel systems engineered from natural and synthetic polymers for hemostatic applications are discussed based on a comprehensive literature review. Most studies described used in vivo models with accessible and compressible wounds to assess the hemostatic performance of hydrogels. The challenges that need to be tackled to accelerate the translation of these novel hemostatic hydrogel systems to clinical practice are emphasized and future directions for research in the field are presented.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite ongoing optimisation of surgical techniques, hemostasis continues to be a fundamental challenge in many operations today. This randomised controlled trial compared the efficacy of a new hemostatic agent made of oxidised regenerated cellulose and collagen (ORC-Coll) with that of a conventional carrier-bound fibrin sealant (CBFS). METHODS Hemostasis was investigated representatively in the case of post-thyroidectomy bleeding from the resection surface. To demonstrate that ORC-Coll (mediCipio® A) has at least the same hemostatic efficacy as CBFS (Tachosil®), the volume of drainage fluid at the time of drain removal was used as the primary endpoint in a non-inferiority test with a significance level of 5%. The secondary endpoints included number and size of hemostatic agents required, adhesion of the hemostatic agent to the bleeding surface, intraoperative hemostatic effect, duration of drainage and adverse events during a six-month follow-up period. RESULTS A total of 150 patients (ORC-Coll: 75; CBFS: 75) were included. After operation, total volume of drainage fluid was 68.20±44.56mL in the ORC group and 68.21±40.20mL in the CBFS group. The non-inferiority of ORC-Coll compared to CBFS with regard to hemostatic efficacy was shown at a significance level of 5%. The results demonstrated effectiveness in achieving hemostasis without adverse events. CONCLUSIONS ORC-Coll is an effective hemostatic agent and barrier sealant without blood components, which ensures reliable prevention of intra- and postoperative bleeding. With use of the new technique, any risks associated with the use of human blood components are a priori eliminated.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to devise a dual functionalized chitosan based hydrogel dressing to control haemorrhage/ bleeding. The haemostatic hydrogel was formulated by amalgamation of a definite ratio of quaternized chitosan and phosphorylated chitosan along with tannic acid which acted as adjuvant hemostat and a crosslinker. Additionally, the hydrogel contained poly-Ɛ-lysine to impart the elastic and adhesive properties. The optimized hydrogel exhibited superior haemostatic activity (clotting time, 225 ± 5 s), platelet activation (soluble P-selectin concentration 2098 ± 150.19 ng mL-1), adhesion strength (almost 3 times higher in comparison to Axiostat), higher fluid absorption (approx. 14 times in 12 h) in addition to better mechanical properties, faster coagulation attributes (Prothrombin time, 12.6 s and activated partial thromboplastin time, 30.1 s) and lower proinflammatory potential (almost 3 times lower Tumor Necrosis Factor- α levels and 45 times lower InterLeukin-6 levels at 48 h against control) over marketed chitosan based dressing (clotting time, 300 ± 25 s). Cytotoxicity studies using L929 fibroblasts cells and in-vivo studies using Wistar rats confirmed that the optimized hydrogel was non-toxic, cytocompatible and biocompatible.

Abstract
Uncontrolled exsanguination remains the leading cause of death for trauma patients, many of whom die in the pre-hospital setting. Without expedient intervention, trauma-associated hemorrhage induces a host of systemic responses and acute coagulopathy of trauma. For this reason, health care providers and prehospital personal face the challenge of swift and effective hemorrhage control. The utilization of adjuncts to facilitate hemostasis was first recorded in 1886. Commercially available products haves since expanded to include topical hemostats, surgical sealants, and adhesives. The ideal product balances efficacy, with safety practicality and cost-effectiveness. This review of hemostasis provides a guide for successful implementation and simultaneously highlights future opportunities.

Abstract
In recent years, there was an abrupt increase in the incidence of renal tumors, which prompt up the appearance of cutting-edge technology, including minimally invasive and organ-preserving approaches, such as laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN). LPN is an innovative technique used to treat small renal masses that have been gaining popularity in the last few decades due to its promissory results. However, the bleeding control remains the main challenge since the majority of currently available hemostatic agents (HAs) used in other surgical specialities are inefficient in LPN. This hurried the search for effective HAs adapted for LPN surgical peculiarities, which resulted on the emergence of different types of topical HAs. The most promising are the natural origin HAs because of their inherent biodegradability, biocompatibility, and lowest toxicity. These properties turn them top interests' candidates as HAs in LPN. In this review, we present a deep overview on the progress achieved in the design of HAs based on natural origin polymers, highlighting their distinguishable characteristics and providing a clear understanding of their hemostat's role in LPN. This way it may be possible to establish a structure-composition properties relation, so that novel HAs for LPN can be designed to explore current unmet medical needs.

Abstract
Today, an advanced wound dressing with the ability of blood clotting and antibacterial activity is the main subject of many studies to consider their necessity in modern society. In this study, it was aimed to present a novel scaffold with both abilities simultaneously. Poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(lactic acid) nanofibrous scaffolds containing ceftriaxone antimicrobial agent (PVA-CTX/PLA) and tranexamic acid coagulant (PVA-CTX-TXA/PLA) were fabricated by electrospinning method. Morphology, antimicrobial activity, blood coagulation and bioavailability indexes, and swelling ability (gel formation) of produced samples were determined. Morphological results showed that the hybrid nanofibers were form successfully. The antibacterial efficiency of them against Gram-negative ( Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive ( Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria was more than 90% for PVA-CTX/PLA and it reached 100% for PVA-CTX-TXA/PLA. Both PVA-CTX-TXA/PLA and PVA-TXA/PLA scaffolds showed acceptable blood coagulation ability with an average absorption of 0.043 and 0.036 nm, respectively. PVA-CTX-TXA/PLA scaffolds had a gel formation ability of about 45 min. All scaffolds were successful in cell proliferation (L929 fibroblast cell) after 48 h.

Abstract
Skin wound healing, especially chronic wound healing, is a common challenging clinical problem. It is urgent to broaden the sources of bioactive substances that can safely and efficiently promote skin wound healing. This study aimed to observe the effects of small molecular peptides (SMPs) of the mantle of Pinctada martensii on wound healing. After physicochemical analysis of amino acids and mass spectrometry of SMPs, the effect of SMPs on promoting healing was studied through a whole cortex wound model on the back of mice for 18 consecutive days. The results showed that SMPs consisted of polypeptides with a molecular weight of 302.17-2936.43 Da. The content of polypeptides containing 2-15 amino acids accounted for 73.87%, and the hydrophobic amino acids accounted for 56.51%. Results of in vitro experimentation showed that SMPs possess a procoagulant effect, but no antibacterial activity. Results of in vivo experiments indicated that SMPs inhibit inflammatory response by secretion of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 during the inflammatory phase; during the proliferative phase, SMPs promote the proliferation of fibroblasts and keratinocytes. The secretion of transforming growth factor-β1 and cyclin D1 accelerates the epithelialization and contraction of wounds. In the proliferative phase, SMPs effectively promote collagen deposition and partially inhibit superficial scar hyperplasia. These results show that SMPs promotes dermal wound healing in mice and have a tremendous potential for development and utilization in skin wound healing.
