  • Composite Bioabsorbable Hemostatic Sponge for Hemostasis: Rapid Control of Surgical Bleeding

    Composite Bioabsorbable Hemostatic Sponge for Hemostasis: Rapid Control of Surgical Bleeding

    Overview: A breakthrough in surgical bleeding management Uncontrolled bleeding during surgery remains one of the most life‑threatening emergencies surgeons face, with internal organ injuries such as those to the liver or spleen presenting especially grave risks. In response, researchers at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) have developed a novel composite bioabsorbable hemostatic sponge…

    Composite Sponge Halts Surgical Bleeding Rapidly and Safely

    Groundbreaking Solution for Internal Bleeding in Surgery Controlling hemorrhage during surgical procedures is a persistent challenge, especially when injuries involve solid organs like the liver or spleen. Conventional hemostatic agents struggle with adhesion, degrade slowly, or require additional interventions, which can increase complication risks and recovery times. A team of researchers at POSTECH (Pohang University…

    Composite sponge offers rapid, safe control of surgical hemorrhage

    Overview: A novel approach to stopping surgical bleeding Uncontrolled hemorrhage during surgery remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Internal organ injuries, such as those to the liver or spleen, pose particular challenges because bleeding can be difficult to control and may require invasive interventions. Researchers at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH)…
