Doctors at AIG Hospitals, Hyderabad have used Hemospray to effectively halt upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in a 49-year-old patient. According to doctors, this endoscopic spray has proven its ability to arrest internal bleeding in under 10 minutes.
Doctors Dr. D Nageshwar Reddy and Dr. Mohan Ramchandani administered Hemospray to a 49-year-old female patient with liver cirrhosis who sought emergency care.
Hemospray, a proprietary mineral powder administered endoscopically, facilitates hemostasis. The inorganic and inert powder forms an adhesive layer upon contact with fluid, providing mechanical compression and promoting hemostasis.
