Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of surgical hemostasis, in particular to a surgical bleeding rapid control method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Bleeding control in surgery is a key link to ensure the safety of surgery and reduce postoperative complications. Existing hemostatic techniques are mainly divided into three categories: physical hemostasis (such as compression, ligation), chemical hemostasis (such as hemostatic materials) and biological stimulation hemostasis (such as electrical stimulation), but all have obvious limitations: Physical hemostasis relies on the experience of doctors, and for small blood vessel bleeding or large area wound bleeding, compression hemostasis is low in efficiency (hemostasis time is usually 5-10 minutes), and is easy to cause tissue damage; ligation hemostasis is only suitable for visible large blood vessels and cannot cover diffuse bleeding; Chemical hemostatic materials (such as gelatin sponge, nanocellulose material) mainly rely on physical water absorption to form a gel to block the bleeding point, or release a single coagulation factor to activate coagulation, but the release rate of coagulation factor is uncontrollable, and in the face of high pressure bleeding scenes such as arterial bleeding, the hemostasis time still needs 4-8 minutes, and when used alone, it is easy to be washed away by blood; Biological electrical stimulation hemostasis activates platelets through weak current, but existing technology does not combine hemostatic materials, and only relies on electrical stimulation to change the surface charge of platelets to activate the coagulation cascade reaction, which is low in efficiency, and the hemostasis time is as long as 6-12 minutes, and the electrical stimulation parameters lack individualized adjustment, which is easy to cause electrical damage to the surrounding normal tissues.
[0003] At present, there is no technology to combine the physical blocking-coagulation factor release function of nanometer hemostatic materials with the platelet activation function of biological electrical stimulation, which cannot realize the dual synergistic hemostasis of "physical barrier + biological activation", resulting in the risk of not timely hemostasis and excessive blood loss in complex surgical operations (such as liver resection, heart surgery).
[0004] Therefore, a rapid, efficient and safe synergistic hemostasis method in surgery is needed to solve the above problems. SUMMARY
[0005] In view of the low efficiency and limited application scene of existing surgical hemostasis technology, the present application provides a surgical bleeding rapid control method, which synchronously exerts force from two aspects of physical blocking and biological chemical coagulation through the synergistic effect of nanometer composite hemostatic material and biological electrical stimulation, shortens the hemostasis time, improves the hemostasis effect, and at the same time guarantees the biocompatibility and operation safety.
[0006] Technical Solution: To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, more specifically, a method for rapid control of surgical bleeding, a synergistic system of "physical obstruction by nanomaterials - precise release of coagulation factors - activation of coagulation by bioelectric stimulation" is constructed, comprising the following steps: S1. Preparation of nanocomposite hemostatic materials Nanoparticles loaded with coagulation factors: Prepared using biodegradable materials such as gelatin and chitosan as carriers via an emulsification-crosslinking method. Key control measures include solvent selection and low-temperature operation to protect the activity of coagulation factors. Solvent compatibility principle: Select mild and biocompatible solvents according to the characteristics of the carrier material, and avoid using strong acids and bases (pH range of 5.5-7.5) or high-concentration organic solvents (such as pure acetone and xylene) to prevent peptide bond breakage or spatial conformation changes of coagulation factors. Specific solvent selection: Deionized water (pH 6.0-7.0) is used for gelatin and sodium alginate; 1% low-concentration acetic acid solution (pH 5.5-6.0, to avoid denaturation of coagulation factors caused by high concentration of acetic acid) is used for chitosan; and a mixed solvent of anhydrous ethanol and water (volume ratio 1:4, to reduce damage to coagulation factors by organic solvents) is used for polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer. Active protection measures: The stirring and emulsification processes after adding coagulation factors are carried out at a low temperature of 4-8℃, and the cross-linking reaction temperature does not exceed 25℃. High temperature (>37℃) or vigorous stirring (>300rpm) should be avoided throughout the process to prevent loss of coagulation factor activity. Activity testing standards: After preparation, the prothrombin time method is used to ensure that the coagulation factor activity retention rate is ≥90%, and the coagulation factor released within 10 minutes in the in vitro release experiment still maintains ≥85% activity.
[0007] S2, Intraoperative application of nanocomposite hemostatic materials Choose the appropriate material type based on the specific condition of the bleeding site, ensuring full contact between the material and the bleeding site: Small bleeding points (area ≤1cm) 2 (Bleeding volume ≤ 0.2 mL / min): The nanocomposite hemostatic material is made into powder and applied at a rate of 0.1-0.2 g / cm³ using a sterile powder sprayer. 2 Spray the powder evenly onto the bleeding site. The powder quickly absorbs water and gels upon contact with blood, forming a tight blocking layer. Large wound area (area > 1cm) 2 For bleeding > 0.2 mL / min: The nanocomposite hemostatic material is made into a film (thickness 1-3 mm) or a gel (viscosity 500-1000 mPa・s). The film material is directly covered on the wound and gently pressed to fix it. The gel material is filled into the depressions of the wound with a syringe to ensure that there are no gaps or omissions.
[0008] S3, Coordination of Bioelectric Stimulation A customized bioelectric stimulation device is used to enhance the coagulation effect through weak pulsed current. The specific operation is as follows: Equipment parameter settings: Set initial parameters according to the patient's physical condition (such as weight and blood pressure) and bleeding type (venous bleeding / arterial bleeding): For venous bleeding, the current intensity is 10-30μA, the pulse frequency is 0.5-1Hz, and the duration is 5-10 minutes; for arterial bleeding, the current intensity is 30-50μA, the pulse frequency is 1-2Hz, and the duration is 10-15 minutes. Electrode placement: Use flexible electrodes with platinum alloy or polyimide base-gold coating (biocompatibility > 99%). Place the electrodes on healthy tissue 0.5-2cm around the bleeding site to avoid direct contact with the bleeding point, which could cause current dispersion. Control the contact pressure between the electrode and the tissue at 5-10kPa to prevent displacement or tissue damage. Dynamic control: During electrical stimulation, heart rate, systolic blood pressure and blood oxygen saturation are collected in real time by a vital signs monitor. If the bleeding volume does not drop to ≤0.5mL / min, the current intensity is increased by 5μA every 3 minutes (not exceeding the upper limit of 50μA). If the heart rate is >100 beats / min or the systolic blood pressure is <90mmHg, electrical stimulation is paused for 2 minutes and then the parameters are adjusted and continued.
[0009] Furthermore, the following steps are also included: S0. Preoperative aseptic treatment: The nanocomposite hemostatic material is sterilized by gamma irradiation (dose 25-30kGy) to ensure that the sterility level meets the requirements of surgical procedures; the electrodes are sterilized by plasma (time 5-10 minutes) to remove surface impurities and enhance biocompatibility. S4. Postoperative monitoring: After hemostasis is completed, observe the bleeding site every 8 hours for 24-72 hours after the operation and record whether there is rebleeding, local redness and swelling or exudation. If rebleeding occurs (bleeding volume > 0.1 mL / min), repeat steps S2-S3 and extend the duration of electrical stimulation by 3-5 minutes to ensure stable hemostasis.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the surgical bleeding rapid control method of the present invention are as follows: (1) This invention combines the physical blocking function of nanocomposite hemostatic materials with the coagulation activation effect of bioelectric stimulation. It not only blocks the bleeding channel by forming a physical barrier quickly through the material, but also activates the coagulation cascade reaction with the help of weak pulse current. It exerts force simultaneously from two core levels of physical and biochemical, achieving a hemostatic effect of "1+1>2", which effectively solves the problem of low hemostatic efficiency when the existing technology is used alone.
[0011] (2) This invention addresses different types of bleeding that may occur during surgery. The method can flexibly adapt various forms of hemostatic materials such as powder, film, and gel according to the area of the bleeding point, the amount of bleeding, and the type of bleeding (venous / arterial bleeding). At the same time, the bioelectric stimulation parameters can be adjusted in a targeted manner. Whether it is a small bleeding point in a microvascular, diffuse bleeding in a large wound, or high-pressure arterial bleeding, it can achieve precise and effective hemostasis, greatly expanding the scope of application.
[0012] (3) The material preparation process in this invention adopts mild solvent and low temperature operation process to avoid destroying the activity of coagulation factors and the biocompatibility of materials. In addition, strict aseptic treatment is carried out before the operation to reduce the risk of infection. The bioelectric stimulation adopts electrode materials with excellent biocompatibility. By controlling the electrode placement position, contact pressure and current parameters, direct damage to the bleeding site and surrounding normal tissues is avoided. The patient's vital signs are monitored in real time throughout the process, and the operation plan is dynamically adjusted to effectively avoid adverse reactions caused by improper parameters, ensure the safety of patients during the operation, and reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications such as redness, swelling, exudation and rebleeding.
[0013] (4) This invention forms a complete standardized process from preoperative preparation, intraoperative operation to postoperative monitoring. Each step has clear operational logic and judgment criteria, avoiding the excessive reliance on doctors' operational experience in traditional hemostasis methods. Through individualized parameter setting and dynamic adjustment mechanism, the stability and consistency of hemostasis effect are ensured. Even in complex surgical procedures, blood loss can be effectively controlled, providing a stable guarantee for the smooth progress of the operation and further improving the overall safety and reliability of the surgery.

Preparation of chitosan nanoparticles loaded with coagulation factor XIII: Chitosan (90% degree of deacetylation) was dissolved in 1% acetic acid solution (pH 5.8, low concentration of acetic acid balances the solubility of chitosan and the activity of coagulation factor XIII) to prepare a 3wt% solution, and coagulation factor XIII solution (0.5 mg / mL) was added. The mass ratio of chitosan to coagulation factor XIII was 15:1. The mixed solution was added dropwise to a 0.1 wt% sodium tripolyphosphate solution (dropping rate 1 mL / min), and stirred at 2000 rpm for 30 minutes. The nanoparticles were collected by centrifugation at 10000 rpm for 20 minutes and washed twice with deionized water to obtain chitosan nanoparticles with a size of 120-180 nm and a loading of 12 wt%. Gel preparation: The nano HEC solution and chitosan nanoparticles were mixed at a volume ratio of 5:1, and 1 wt% glycerol (thickener) was added. The mixture was stirred until homogeneous to obtain a nanocomposite hemostatic gel with a viscosity of 800 mPa·s.
[0023] S2, Intraoperative Application and Bioelectric Stimulation Preoperative treatment: Hemostatic gel was sterilized by 30kGy γ-ray irradiation, and flexible conductive electrode (polyimide base + gold coating, size 2cm×4cm) was sterilized by plasma for 5 minutes. Material Application: During partial liver resection surgery, arterial bleeding occurred in the wound (3cm×5cm) (bleeding volume 0.3mL / min). After rinsing the wound with sterile saline, hemostatic gel was evenly applied to the wound to a thickness of 2mm.
