Abstract
Retaining the hemocompatibility, supporting cell growth, and exhibiting anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, while having antimicrobial activity, particularly against multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR), remain a challenge when designing aerogels for biomedical applications. Here, we report that our synthesized alginate-based aerogels containing either 7.5 or 11.25 μg of lipoic acid-capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) showed improved hemocompatibility properties while retaining their antimicrobial effect against MDR Acinetobacter baumannii and the reference strain Escherichia coli, relative to a commercial dressing and polymyxin B, used as a reference. The differences in terms of the microstructure and nature of the silver, used as the bioactive agent, between our synthesized aerogels and the commercial dressing used as a reference allowed us to improve several biological properties in our aerogels with respect to the reference commercial material. Our aerogels showed significantly higher antioxidant capacity, in terms of nmol of Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity per mg of aerogel, than the commercial dressing. All our synthesized aerogels showed anti-inflammatory activity, expressed as nmol of indomethacin equivalent anti-inflammatory activity per mg of aerogel, while this property was not found in the commercial dressing material. Finally, our aerogels were highly hemocompatible (less than 1% hemolysis ratio); however, the commercial material showed a 20% hemolysis rate. Therefore, our alginate-based aerogels with lipoic acid-capped AgNPs hold promise for biomedical applications.

Abstract
In traumatized patients, the primary cause of mortality is uncontrollable continuous bleeding and unexpected intraoperative bleeding which is likely to increase the risk of complications and surgical failure. High expansion sponges are effective clinical practice for the treatment of wound bleeding (irregular/deep/narrow) that are caused by capillaries, veins and even arterioles as they possess a high liquid absorption ratio so can absorb blood platelets easily in comparison with traditional haemostasis treatments, which involve compression, ligation, or electrical coagulation etc. When in contact with blood, haemostatic sponges can cause platelet adhesion, aggregation, and thrombosis, preventing blood from flowing out from wounds, triggering the release of coagulation factors, causing the blood to form a stable polymerized fibre protein, forming blood clots, and achieving the goal of wound bleeding control. Haemostatic sponges are found in a variety of shapes and sizes. The aim of this review is to facilitate an overview of recent research around haemostatic sponge materials, products, and technology. This paper reviews the synthesis, properties, and characteristics of haemostatic sponges, together with the haemostasis mechanisms of haemostatic sponges (composite materials), such as chitosan, cellulose, gelatin, starch, graphene oxide, hyaluronic acid, alginate, polyethylene glycol, silk fibroin, synthetic polymers silver nanoparticles, zinc oxide nanoparticles, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and silica nanoparticles. Also, this paper reviews commercial sponges and their properties. In addition to this, we discuss various in-vitro/in-vivo approaches for the evaluation of the effect of sponges on haemostasis.

Abstract
Novel wound dressing materials are required to non-cytotoxic with a viable cell ratio of above 92%. Herein, the cytotoxicity of hyaluronic acid/chitosan/bacterial cellulose-based (BC(CS/HA)) membranes are evaluated and compared to that of alginate/chitosan/bacterial cellulose-based (BC(CS/Alg)) membranes was investigated. Multilayer membranes with up to ten CS/HA or CS/Alg layers were prepared using the layer-by-layer (LBL) method. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the diameters of the fibers in the BC(CS/Alg) and BC(CS/HA) membranes were larger than those in a BC membrane. The cytotoxicity was analyzed using BALB-3T3 clone A31 cells (mouse fibroblasts, 1 × 104 cells/well). The BC(CS/HA)5 and BC(CS/HA)10 membranes exhibited high biocompatibility, with the cell viabilities of 94% and 87% at 5 d, respectively, compared to just 82% for the BC(CS/Alg)5 and BC(CS/Alg)10 membranes with same numbers of layers. These results suggested that BC(CS/HA)5 is a promising material for wound dressings.

J Trauma Acute Care Surg 2023; 94:608-614. [PMID: 36728318 PMCID: PMC10045977 DOI: 10.1097/ta.0000000000003869] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Control of massive hemorrhage from penetrating wound sites is difficult in both combat and civilian settings. A new hemostatic dressing, sodium polyacrylate (PAAs)-based bag (PB), based on PAAs is designed for the first aid of massive penetrating hemorrhage. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of PB in a penetrating trauma model in swine. METHODS A complex groin penetrating injury was produced in swine by completely excising the femoral vessels and surrounding muscles. After 15-second free bleeding, 18 healthy Guizhou female swine were administered PB (n = 6), CELOX-A (n = 6; Medtrade Products, Crewe, United Kingdom), or standard gauze (n = 6) for hemostatic intervention, followed by 3-minute compression if the bleeding persisted, with subsequent observation continuing for 1 hour. The primary outcomes included initial hemostasis, the incidence of applying manual pressure, and application time. RESULTS Sodium polyacrylate could rapidly absorb the liquid to expand, crosslink with a large number of red blood cells, induce cellular morphological alteration, and promote blood coagulation. Sodium polyacrylate-based bag and CELOX-A initiated and sustained hemostasis for 60 minutes, whereas 0% of the standard gauze achieved initial hemostasis. Maximum number of manual compressions were applied in standard gauze (6 of 6 [100%]), followed by CELOX-A (5 of 6 [80%]), while no manual pressure was required in the case of PB (0 of 6 [0%]). Application time for PB (19.0 ± 4.6 seconds) was significantly less than CELOX-A (169.0 ± 73.5 seconds) and standard gauze (187.8 ± 1.7 seconds). CONCLUSION We prepared a type of superabsorbent PAAs and made an original hemostatic dressing, PB. It can rapidly achieve durable hemostasis in the groin-penetrating trauma hemorrhage swine model without any external compression. The packet form makes PB easy to deploy and remove from wounds. Therefore, PB could be a promising hemostatic candidate for controlling penetrating hemorrhage.

Chitosan-based films with cannabis oil as a base material for wound dressing application. Sci Rep 2022; 12:18658.

Abstract
This study focuses on obtaining and characterizing novel chitosan-based biomaterials containing cannabis oil to potentially promote wound healing. The primary active substance in cannabis oil is the non-psychoactive cannabidiol, which has many beneficial properties. In this study, three chitosan-based films containing different concentrations of cannabis oil were prepared. As the amount of oil increased, the obtained biomaterials became rougher as tested by atomic force microscopy. Such rough surfaces promote protein adsorption, confirmed by experiments assessing the interaction between human albumin with the obtained materials. Increased oil concentration also improved the films' mechanical parameters, swelling capacity, and hydrophilic properties, which were checked by the wetting angle measurement. On the other hand, higher oil content resulted in decreased water vapour permeability, which is essential in wound dressing. Furthermore, the prepared films were subjected to an acute toxicity test using a Microtox. Significantly, the film's increased cannabis oil content enhanced the antimicrobial effect against A. fischeri for films in direct contact with bacteria. More importantly, cell culture studies revealed that the obtained materials are biocompatible and, therefore, they might be potential candidates for application in wound dressing materials.

Abstract
Hemostasis plays an essential role in all surgical procedures. Uncontrolled hemorrhage is the primary cause of death during surgeries, and effective blood loss control can significantly reduce mortality. For modern surgeons to select the right agent at the right time, they must understand the mechanisms of action, the effectiveness, and the possible adverse effects of each agent. Over the past decade, various hemostatic agents have grown intensely. These agents vary from absorbable topical hemostats, including collagen, gelatins, microfibrillar, and regenerated oxidized cellulose, to biologically active topical hemostats such as thrombin, biological adhesives, and other combined agents. Commercially available products have since expanded to include topical hemostats, surgical sealants, and adhesives. Silk is a natural protein consisting of fibroin and sericin. Silk fibroin (SF), derived from silkworm Bombyx mori, is a fibrous protein that has been used mostly in fashion textiles and surgical sutures. Additionally, SF has been widely applied as a potential biomaterial in several biomedical and biotechnological fields. Furthermore, SF has been employed as a hemostatic agent in several studies. In this review, we summarize the several morphologic forms of SF and the latest technological advances on the use of SF-based hemostatic agents.

Abstract
Hemorrhage, as a common trauma injury and clinical postoperative complication, may cause serious damage to the body, especially for patients with huge blood loss and coagulation dysfunction. Timely and effective hemostasis and avoidance of bleeding are of great significance for reducing body damage and improving the survival rate and quality of life of patients. Alginate is considered to be an excellent hemostatic polymer-based biomaterial due to its excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity, non-immunogenicity, easy gelation and easy availability. In recent years, alginate hydrogels have been more and more widely used in the medical field, and a series of hemostatic related products have been developed such as medical dressings, hemostatic needles, transcatheter interventional embolization preparations, microneedles, injectable hydrogels, and hemostatic powders. The development and application prospects are extremely broad. This manuscript reviews the structure, properties and history of alginate, as well as the research progress of alginate hydrogels in clinical applications related to hemostasis. This review also discusses the current limitations and possible future development prospects of alginate hydrogels in hemostatic applications.

Abstract
Biomaterials are being extensively used in regenerative medicine including tissue engineering applications, as these enhance tissue development, repair, and help in the process of angiogenesis. Wound healing is a crucial biological process of regeneration of ruptured tissue after getting injury to the skin and other soft tissue in humans and animals. Besides, the accumulation of microbial biofilms around the wound surface can increase the risk and physically obstruct the wound healing activity, and may even lead to amputation. Hence, in both acute and chronic wounds, prominent biomaterials are required for wound healing along with antimicrobial agents. This review comprehensively addresses the antimicrobial and wound healing effects of chitosan, chitin, cellulose acetate, hyaluronic acid, pullulan, bacterial cellulose, fibrin, alginate, etc. based wound dressing biomaterials fabricated with natural resources such as honey, plant bioactive compounds, and marine-based polymers. Due to their excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, bioactive compounds derived from honey, plants, and marine resources are commonly used in biomedical and tissue engineering applications. Different types of polymer-based biomaterials including hydrogel, film, scaffold, nanofiber, and sponge dressings fabricated with bioactive agents including honey, curcumin, tannin, quercetin, andrographolide, gelatin, carrageenan, etc., can exhibit significant wound healing process in, diabetic wounds, diabetic ulcers, and burns, and help in cartilage repair along with good biocompatibility and antimicrobial effects. Among the reviewed biomaterials, carbohydrate polymers such as chitosan-based biomaterials are prominent and widely used for wound healing applications followed by hyaluronic acid and alginate-based biomaterials loaded with honey, plant, and marine compounds. This review first provides an overview of the vast natural resources used to formulate different biomaterials for the treatment of antimicrobial, acute, and chronic wound healing processes.

Abstract
The improper management of wound exudates can expose the wound to bacterial invasion, skin maceration etc. thereby resulting in prolonged wound healing. Biopolymers are characterized by hydrophilic functional groups which when employed for the development of wound dressings promote the wound dressings capability to absorb a high amount of wound exudates. Alginate-gum acacia sponges were prepared from a combination of biopolymers such as sodium alginate and gum acacia in varying amounts with carbopol via crosslinking with 1 and 2% CaCl2. The prepared sponges were loaded with a combination of ampicillin and norfloxacin. In vitro antibacterial analysis revealed that the antibacterial activity of the loaded antibiotics was retained and the sponges were effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The sponges displayed rapid and high absorption capability in the range of 1022-2419% at pH 5.5 simulating wound exudates, and 2268-5042% at pH 7.4 simulating blood within a period of 1-3 h. Furthermore, the whole blood clotting studies further revealed low absorbance values when compared to the control revealing the good clotting capability of the sponges. The unique features of the sponges revealed their potential application for the management of infected, high exuding and bleeding wounds.

Abstract
Rapid hemostasis and formation of stable blood clots are very important to prevent massive blood loss from the excessive bleeding for living body, but their own clotting process cannot be completed in time for effective hemostasis without the help of hemostatic materials. In general, traditionally suturing and stapling techniques for wound closure are prone to cause the additional damages to the tissues, activated inflammatory responses, short usage periods and inevitable second operations in clinical applications. Especially for the large wounds that require the urgent closure of fluids or gases, these conventional closure methods are far from enough. To address these problems, various tissue adhesives, sealants and hemostatic materials are placed great expectation. In this review, we focused on the development of two main categories of tissue adhesive materials: synthetic polymeric adhesives and naturally derived polysaccharide adhesives. Research of the high performance of hemostatic adhesives with strong adhesion, better biocompatibility, easy usability and cheap price is highly demanded for both scientists and clinicians, and this review is also intended to provide a comprehensive summarization and inspiration for pursuit of more advanced hemostatic adhesives for biological fields.

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
Composites are composed of two or more materials, displaying enhanced performance and superior mechanical properties when compared to their individual components. The use of biocompatible materials has created a new category of biocomposites. Biocomposites can be applied to living tissues due to low toxicity, biodegradability and high biocompatibility. This review summarizes recent applications of biocomposite materials in the field of biomedical engineering, focusing on four areas-bone regeneration, orthopedic/dental implants, wound healing and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Palliative wound care is a philosophy of wound management that prioritizes comfort over healing and attends to the emotional distress these wounds can cause. Intervention strategies focus on management of symptoms such as pain, odor, bleeding, and exudate. Historic treatments such as honey, chlorine, and vinegar have gained renewed interest, and although well suited to the palliative setting, there is an increasing amount of research exploring their efficacy in other contexts. The lived experience of patients and caregivers facing these wounds is often stressful and isolating, and any treatment plan must address these issues along with the physical aspects of care.

Abstract
Rapid bleeding control is increasingly important in current civilian and military emergency medicine, but the rapid hemostasis achieved with current hemostatic products is often unsafe. In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with large pores were coordinated with a glycerol-modified N-alkylated chitosan sponge (GACS) to develop a rapid and safe hemostatic sponge. Due to its coagulation-promoting structure, MSN-GACS exhibited unique hemostatic potency in serial in vitro coagulation tests. In addition to enhanced platelet adhesion and whole blood absorption, MSN-GACS exhibited better biocompatibility than Combat Gauze (CG), which is popular in the US military. Furthermore, in rabbit femoral artery and liver injury in vivo models, MSN-GACS showed better hemostatic efficiency and lower cardiovascular toxicity than CG. In conclusion, MSN-GACS is an excellent prehospital hemostatic agent for first-aid applications.

Abstract
The present study aimed to prepare a composite dressing composed of collagen, chitosan, and alginate, which may promote wound healing and prevent from seawater immersion. Chitosan-collagen-alginate (CCA) cushion was prepared by paintcoat and freeze-drying, and it was attached to a polyurethane to compose CCA composite dressing. The swelling, porosity, degradation, and mechanical properties of CCA cushion were evaluated. The effects on wound healing and seawater prevention of CCA composite dressing were tested by rat wound model. Preliminary biosecurity was tested by cytotoxicity and hemocompatibility. The results revealed that CCA cushion had good water absorption and mechanical properties. A higher wound healing ratio was observed in CCA composite dressing treated rats than in gauze or chitosan treated ones. On the fifth day, the healing rates of CCA composite dressing, gauze, and chitosan were 48.49%±1.07%, 28.02%±6.4%, and 38.97%±8.53%, respectively. More fibroblast and intact re-epithelialization were observed in histological images of CCA composite dressing treated rats, and the expressions of EGF, bFGF, TGF-β, and CD31 increased significantly. CCA composite dressing showed no significant cytotoxicity, and favorable hemocompatibility. These results suggested that CCA composite dressing could prevent against seawater immersion and promote wound healing while having a good biosecurity.
