Standout Features Manufacturer Capabilities   CELOX Information How Does Celox Work? CELOX is an innovative new hemostat designed to bond with specific sites which are present on the surface of red blood cells and platelets to make a gel like clot/plug. This process is totally different from the body's normal clotting mechanisms. Anticoagulants such as heparin and warfarin (often sold as Coumadin) can interfere with the body's normal clotting process. They often delay blood clotting times. Hyperthermia is also well known to delay clotting. As CELOX works independently of the normal clotting process, its clotting ability is not affected by the presence of anticoagulants or by cold temperature. Laboratory testing has confirmed that CELOX quickly clots blood containing heparin or warfarin (Coumadin). It has also shown that CELOX also quickly clots blood which has been cooled to simulate hypothermia. There are links to some of this data below. The U.S. Marines have tested CELOX in a wound model designed to simulate a major battlefield wound with massive arterial damage. Their work was carried out independently and showed that even in this extreme situation, CELOX could reliably stop bleeding, reduce blood loss and save lives. Journal Academic Emergency Medicine Jan 08, Page 74-81 What is CELOX? CELOX is a proprietary blend of materials covered by 3 international patent applications. CELOX contains a natural marine polymer, Chitosan. Chitsan is a highly purified polysaccharide derivative of shrimp shells.
