Abstract

Uncontrolled bleeding is a critical concern in both wartime and civilian trauma emergencies. Current mechanical hemostatic patches do not always suffice to control bleeding while also not addressing rebleeding, which is often observed during patient transportation. The unmet clinical need has led to exploration of drug-loaded hemostat dressings, providing mechanical hemostasis as well as drug delivery at the bleeding site to stabilize the clots. In the present study, hemostatic nanofiber patches of poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/tranexamic acid-ethamsylate (PVA/CS/TXA-E) were prepared by taking a combination of chitosan, PVA, with two different hemostatic drugs, namely TXA, and ethamsylate to exert a synergistic pharmacological augmentation of hemostat performance of the nanofibers. The PVA/CS/TXA-E nanofiber patches comprised fiber strands with a 400 nm average diameter and showed a swelling ratio of 459%. The nanofiber possessed intermittent hydrophilicity (water contact angle 32). Drug release through the nanofiber followed a non-Fickian diffusion model. Dual-drug loaded nanofibers showed a decrease in the clotting time by 24%, while activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, and platelet recalcination time decreased by 6%, 20% & 15% over the single-drug loaded nanofibers. Cytocompatibility (80% and above) and hemocompatibility (less than 8%) of the patches were established. The hemorrhage control capacity was studiedin vitroand ex vivo on rabbit skin.In vivoresults corroborated the hemostat performance and evidence of the presence of granularity indicative of wound healing progression. Our results suggest PVA/CS/TXA-E potential as an effective hemostatic nanofiber with biocompatibility for managing hemorrhage and facilitating wound healing post-surgery.

双重载药自穿戴电纺丝纳米纤维在院前创伤护理中通过三级止血进行协同药物干预。
在战时和平民创伤紧急情况中,不受控制的出血都是一个关键问题。目前的机械止血贴片并不总是足够的,因为不能解决在病人运输过程中经常观察到的再出血。未被满足的临床需求导致探索药物负载止血敷料,提供机械止血和药物输送到出血部位稳定凝块。本研究将壳聚糖、聚乙烯醇与氨甲环酸和乙胺酸两种不同的止血药物联合制备止血纳米纤维贴片(PVA/CS/TXA-E),以协同增强纳米纤维的止血性能。制备的纳米纤维贴片直径为400 nm,膨胀率为366 ~ 459%。纳米纤维具有间歇性亲水性(水接触角32)。药物通过纳米纤维的释放遵循非菲克扩散模型。建立了细胞相容性(80%及以上)和血液相容性(小于8%)。在离体和离体实验中对兔皮肤的止血能力进行了研究。两种药物负载可使凝血时间缩短24%,而aPTT、PT和PRT也比两种药物负载的纳米纤维分别减少6%、20%和15%。在体内的结果证实了止血剂的性能和颗粒的存在表明伤口愈合进展的证据。我们的研究结果表明,PVA/CS/TXA-E作为一种具有生物相容性的高效止血纳米纤维,具有控制出血和促进术后伤口愈合的潜力。
