A patent application (Publication Number: US20240033398A1) describes a method and system for accelerating clotting in the case of a bleeding wound. The method involves providing a hemostatic device comprising a gauze substrate, clay material, and a binder to bind the clay material to the gauze substrate. The device is then adhered to the skin of the wearer to retain it on or near the bleeding wound. The system includes a flexible substrate to adhere the hemostatic device to the wound, with the gauze substrate being flexible to conform to the shape of the wound and retain it.

The hemostatic device is designed to accelerate clotting by allowing the clay material to come into contact with the bleeding wound. The flexible substrate can be made of non-breathable plastic material and may include a pressure-sensitive adhesive for easy application. The system also includes options for sterilized packaging and the use of a release agent in the hemostatic device. The binder used in the device can be selected from a group of materials including glycerol, chitosan, and calcium alginate. Overall, the method and system aim to provide an efficient and effective way to accelerate clotting in the case of a bleeding wound, with a focus on ease of application and flexibility to conform to different wound shapes.
