EndoClot Polysaccharide Hemostatic System in Nonvariceal Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Abstract

EndoClot expanded the therapeutic options in the management of GI bleeding. It was applicable as a monotherapy or in combination with other techniques from oozing bleeding type or lower. It was most effective in diffuse or extensive bleeding activity or when access to the bleeding vessel was difficult. EndoClot can be applied as a bridge to surgery when classical methods of hemostasis have failed.
