ResQFoam for the Treatment of Non-Compressible Hemorrhage on the Front Line

Noncompressible torso hemorrhage is the leading cause of potentially survivable death on the battlefield. While medical advances have decreased the rate of "died of wounds" to less than 5%, significant treatment limitations in pre-hospital care remain. To address this persistent capability...

description Noncompressible torso hemorrhage is the leading cause of potentially survivable death on the battlefield. While medical advances have decreased the rate of "died of wounds" to less than 5%, significant treatment limitations in pre-hospital care remain. To address this persistent capability gap, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency launched the Wound Stasis System program in 2010. Under that program, Arsenal Medical, in collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, developed a novel, self-expanding polyurethane foam that rapidly treats major abdominal bleeding due to trauma, for use at the point of care. This foam treatment is envisioned as an emergency "bridge to surgery" for warfighters who would otherwise die in the field. This commentary presents this emerging technology with the objective to bring to the community's attention a potentially promising device for the treatment of noncompressible abdominal hemorrhage.
