Abstract

See full text

A method for decreasing the time it takes for a wound to heal includes applying hemostatic agent to the wound, inflaming tissue surrounding the wound to facilitate the deposition of fibroblast, thereby accelerating the subsequent contraction of the wound and the onset of the proliferative healing stage, and causing the re-epithelization of the tissue at a faster rate than if no hemostatic agent was applied. A method for promoting the healing of a bleeding wound includes coating a hemostatic agent onto a substrate, applying the substrate to the bleeding wound so that an effective amount of the hemostatic agent is applied to the wound, inflaming the tissue, and causing the re-epithelization of the tissue at a faster rate than if no hemostatic agent was applied. In at least some methods, a clotting cascade and platelet aggregation within the bleeding wound is accelerated, and blood loss from the wound is decreased.
