Corporate Foundation HemCon Medical Technologies, Inc. was founded on one simple premise. SAVE LIVES.

Proprietary Technology Chitosan – positively charged Attractive Product Features Quickly stops severe hemorrhage in a variety of settings – typically within 2-5 minutes Works independently of the clotting cascade No adverse reactions reported to date (>500,000 units shipped) Antibacterial barrier Effective in patients taking anticoagulant medications Easily removed without dislodging the clot Chitosan bandage draws red blood cells / platelets to the surface Quickly creates a clot and seals wound Red blood cells / platelets – negatively charged

HemCon Dressings Revolutionary hemostatic dressings providing: Rapid control of moderate to severe external (arterial) hemorrhaging Antibacterial seal to promote healing No adverse affects reported to date Multiple usage models per size and shape

HemCon – Prehospital Care Successfully used by Tualatin Valley F & R Piloted by David Shield (Israeli Red Cross) – 13 life-saving uses “The limited experience suggests the HemCon Bandage can be successfully incorporated into the civilian EMS system. When properly applied, the HemCon Bandage stops uncontrolled external hemorrhage when conventional methods fail.” - Medicine & Critical Care Review 2006 “This report on the field use of the HemCon dressing by medics suggests that it is a useful hemostatic dressing for prehospital combat casualties and supports further study to confirm efficacy.” Journal of Trauma March 2006

Usage Information The bandage can be cut into smaller pieces to fit into small wounds, or multiple bandages can be overlapped for large injuries. The bandage must be in contact with the bleeding vessel to be effective. Apply and maintain pressure for at least two minutes or until bleeding is controlled. The bandage should be wrapped with gauze or a pressure dressing for transport. Do not let moisture from your hand come in contact with the bandage. The moisture could cause the bandage to become sticky.

Precautions Once applied, do not attempt to reposition the bandage. A new bandage should be applied to other exposed bleeding sites. Care must be taken to avoid contact with the patient’s eyes. If bandage sticks, but does not completely stop bleeding. Do not remove bandage right away. Depending on circumstances, it may be best to leave bandage on rather than trying to place a new bandage. If bandage is not effective in stopping bleeding, remove original and apply a new bandage. Additional bandages cannot be applied over ineffective bandages.

What About Shellfish Allergies? There have been no known allergic reactions as a result of using the HemCon Bandage since distribution began in 2003 and there have been no adverse effects reported in over 750,000 bandages shipped. Shellfish allergy study shows that, out of 221 individuals with suspected hypersensitivity, including 8 individuals with known shellfish allergies, none demonstrated any dermal sensitivity when pricked with a chitosan test solution. However, since chitosan is extracted from the shells of shrimp, other shellfish and fungi, individuals with known shellfish allergies should exercise caution in the use of products containing chitosan.

Instructions for Removal The bandage can be left in place for up to 48 hours. Do not remove bandage until definitive surgical care is available. To remove, simply irrigate the area with saline. There is no need for wound debridement.
