Traumatic hemorrhage remains the leading cause of combat related preventable deaths due to lack of necessary innovation to stanch non-compressible blood loss in the field, where soldiers are required to rely on limited resources for extend periods of time until evacuation can take place. Combat casualty care options are limited to compact, portable, easily administered therapies. The mounting rise in infectious complication after combat casualty wounds also presents an immediate health risk to after-care of military personnel and impacts the healing process after injury.
