摘要

Stanching severe traumatic bleeding requires hemostatic materials that can provide rapid and efficient hemostasis. However, most currently available hemostatic agents exhibit low efficiency and poor biocompatibility. In this study, a novel carboxymethyl chitosan modified with methacrylic anhydride (double-bonded carboxymethyl chitosan)/cysteamine-modified chondroitin sulfate (Me-CMC/CSS) rapid hemostatic dressing was developed using thiol-ene click chemistry. The freeze-dried Me-CMC/CSS dressings absorbed water rapidly and transformed into soft hydrogels that could seal wounds, achieving good hemostasis. The relative blood clotting index of the optimal Me-CMC/CSS dressing was decreased by 53% (p < 0.001) and 29% compared with a pure Me-CMC dressing and a commercial hemostatic gelatin sponge, respectively. In a rat liver hemorrhage model, the Me-CMC/CSS dressing stopped bleeding rapidly, and the total blood loss was significantly decreased by 92% (p < 0.0001) compared with the untreated group and was lower than that with gelatin sponge treatment. The Me-CMC/CSS dressing also exhibited a higher ability to adhere to platelets than the gelatin sponge. Furthermore, the Me-CMC/CSS dressing exhibited good hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. The results indicate that the composite dressings can be potentially applied as rapid hemostatic materials.
