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.” “This report on the field use of the
- Medicine & Critical Care Review 2006
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

before systemic invasion can take place, and is superior to alginate bandage
and silver sulfadiazine that may both encourage bacterial growth in the short
term.”

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.
