When Accidents in the Shop Occur, WoundSeal Instantly Stops The Bleeding To Safely Keep Workers on the Job

WoundSeal is a topical powder that stops external bleeding through the creation of an instant, protective and waterproof scab. Ideal for the jobsite, the easy-to-use powder enables injured workers to effectively treat their own wound in order to get back to work quickly.

Installing a new alternator; putting in new spark
plugs; changing out an engine — all daily activities of a technician and three
of the biggest reasons how they can suffer bleeding wounds on the job. When
accidents happen, injured workers can stop bleeding cuts instantly through WoundSeal,
a breakthrough powder doctors have used for years in the hospital.

Now available over the counter at leading
pharmacy retailers and through occupational first aid distributors, WoundSeal
is a topical powder that stops external bleeding through the creation of an
instant, protective and waterproof scab. Ideal for the jobsite, the easy-to-use
powder enables injured workers to effectively treat their own wound in order to
get back to work quickly.

“When accidents happen, especially in the garage
where there are many contaminates such as oil, dirt and grease that can enter a
wound, it is critically important to treat the wound immediately to avoid
adverse health outcomes,” said Louis M. Guzzi, MD, an Orlando, FL, critical
care physician. “Through my experience, I’ve treated the injured in the ER who
couldn’t stop their bleeding wound and those who come to my office a day later
because their ailing wound was treated with duct tape, glue or not at all.

“In many cases, most of these trips to seek
medical care could have been avoided if the injured worker could have stopped
the bleeding quickly and protect it from the elements. That’s why I’m excited
to see that WoundSeal, the same product I use in the hospital, is now available
for purchase. I’m confident that this one first-aid product will help save both
the worker and his/her employer money, time and aggravation.”

 


How WoundSeal Is Different & Works

While hemostatic agents, such as styptic pencils,
have been on the market for minor shaving nicks and paper cuts, WoundSeal is
the only product that can treat a broad range of external bleeding wounds.


Here is how it works once a cut occurs:

  – The
person tries to clean the bleeding wound if possible and lets the wound
re-bleed. Blood is necessary for the powder to work.

  – With
blood present, the person pours the topical powder – comprised of a hydrophilic
polymer and potassium ferrate – onto the wound and applies light pressure.
Powder + Pressure = Instant Scab.

  – The
powder interacts with the wound’s blood to form a protective scab in seconds.
Note: the powder works independently of the body’s blood-clotting cascade to
stop bleeding without entering the blood stream.

  – The
instant scab protects the wound and is waterproof. It falls off naturally as
the wound heals.

 

Through WoundSeal’s breakthrough technology,
consumers treating a bleeding wound can now reduce the number of steps and
products used to one easy-to-use application and reduce actual bleeding time
from minutes, hours or even days (as with senior citizens) to just seconds.
Unlike traditional gauze, tape and bandages, WoundSeal is guaranteed to stop
external bleeding.

“For mechanics and auto techs who bleed easily
due to an accident on the job, WoundSeal is one of the biggest revelations in
occupational first aid since adhesive bandages were introduced more than 100
years ago,” states Dr. Guzzi. “The ability to go from many products to just one
– and increase the effectiveness of stopping bleeding – is a tremendous step
forward in wound care.”

 


Clinically Proven and Tested

While the topical powder is new on retail
shelves, it is has been in use at leading hospitals for several years.
Additionally, sports medicine professionals and trainers have also used the
powder to stop bleeding at the collegiate and pro levels. Through WoundSeal
Powder, people in industries that are likely to get frequent cuts or
lacerations now have access to the same topical powder doctors use.
