ABSTRACT
Comparative evaluation of effectivennes and safety of the local hemostatic agents in the experiment. On the model side damage the femoral artery of pigs we performed a comperative test of modern local hemostatic agents (LHA): bandages on the basis of chitosan <

With the help of tests on 10 big biological objects (sheep) was studied a modern model of severe lateral damage (6 mm diameter) of femoral artery. Within 45 seconds blood loss was 432.5 +/- 258.2 ml. The usage of domestic local hemostatic agent--"Gemostop" based on zeolite and "Gemofleks" based on chitosan. The total three-hour mortality was 50%. Primary hemostasis was recorded only in 20% of biological objects, the final hemostasis in 60%. Thus, the model of standard 6-mm lateral damage of femoral artery with a free primary hemmorage during 45 seconds should be considered as. optimal for evaluating the effectiveness of modern hemostatic agents.

Today self-expanding polymers are considered as the most promising as means for intracavitary hemostasis in case of continuing bleeding after trauma. Testing of domestic open-cell polyurethane foam composition "Locus" was carried out on the developed experimental model simulating liver trauma of V degree. After damaging 6 experimental rabbits were injected intraperitoneally with 80 ml of the composition. 5 experimental rabbits were included into to control group (haemostatic agent was not given). Estimated blood loss was 111-124 ml. The two-hour survival rate didn't differ significantly: 3 animals survived in the experimental group; 2 animal survived in the control. Despite the 3-4-fold widening of the foam, due to open cells it absorbed 72.6 +/- 8.3 g of blood. Thus, open-cell polyurethane foam intraperitoneal administration of the composition didn't provide a temporary intra-abdominal hemostasis in liver. In order to enhance the hemostatic effect it requires changing the formulation of the polyurethane composition. For a more accurate assessment of the results it is neccessary to perform additional researches on larger animals.
