Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of AnkaferdBloodStopper(R) (ABS) on nerve conductance. ABS consists of traditional haemostatic ingredients, and has been officially approved for topical use in the management of external hemorrhage and dental surgical procedures. The basic mechanism of action for ABS is the formation of an encapsulated protein network that provides focal points for vital erythrocyte aggregation.
