BACKGROUND: The Rapid Deployment Hemostat (RDH) Bandage was developed for the rapid control of bleeding caused by trauma. METHODS: An extremity wound involving skin, muscle, bone, and femoral arterial injury and a 1-cm vertical incision in the abdominal aorta in swine were studied to compare the RDH Bandage, a fibrin sealant dressing and gauze to restore hemostasis. The total blood loss was determined and the survival of animals was measured. RESULTS: In the extremity injury model, the RDH Bandage reduced blood loss by 63% compared with the gauze control. In the aorta arterial incision model, the RDH Bandage required a significantly lower compression time to control bleeding compared with gauze and TachoComb. The RDH Bandage was able to stop bleeding from this injury in 100% of the tests. CONCLUSION: The RDH Bandage was superior to a commercially available fibrin bandage in controlling hemorrhage, decreasing blood loss, and increasing survival.
