    Abstract:

Applications: Most of the deaths in case of accidents and trauma occur due to haemorrhagic shock and rapid blood loss i.e. bleeding. The currently available haemostatic dressings (materials that prevent blood loss) are not efficient enough to stop excessive bleeding, expensive and unable to curtail microbial infection. Here, we have fabricated a novel polymeric haemostatic bandage incorporated with specific haemostatic agents by cryogelation technology. The polymeric bandage has a high swelling rate with good mechanical property and high blood clotting abiltiy. This comprehensive polymeric matrix works synergistically to maintain haemostasis by forming a stable clot, besides accelerating the clot formation. The in-vitro and in-vivo evaluation of the developed haemostatic bandage showed best results with rapid blood coagulation and good antiseptic properties.
Advantages: The present invention describes a polymeric bandage for haemostatic application especially during excessive bleeding in case of battlefields and civilian trauma. The invention being inexpensive and efficient in stopping excessive blood loss, will be useful to common public and defence people. Thus, the developed bandage will act as a first-hand emergency bandage in critical conditions (war, trauma), where seconds matter to save a precious life.

THE VISION
THE MISSION
ABOUT I-STEM
It has always been the basic tenet of the Government of India, in generously funding R&D efforts at academic institutions over the years, that facilities established through such support be made available to those needing them and qualified to make use of them for their own research work

However, this was never easy or straightforward for, among other reasons, there was no ready source of information of what facility was available and where. Thanks to the Web, it is much easier today to have a national and regional “inventory of resources”, so as to match users with the resources they need, and to do all this in an efficient and transparent manner.

This can lead to a leap in R&D productivity and greatly enhance the effectiveness of public investment. This is the motivation behind I-STEM.
