Thermoreversible Reverse-Phase-Shift Foam for Treatment of Noncompressible Torso Hemorrhage, a Safety Trial in a Porcine Model
Abstract
Noncompressible torso hemorrhage is the leading cause of exsanguination on the battlefield. A self-expanding, intraperitoneal deployed, thermoreversible foam has been developed that can be easily administered by a medic in austere settings to temporarily tamponade noncompressible torso hemorrhage. The purpose of this study was to assess the long-term safety and physical characteristics of using Fast Onset Abdominal Management (FOAM; Critical Innovations LLC) in swine.
