United Health Products, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets a hemostatic gauze for the healthcare and wound care sectors. Its gauze product, HemoStyp, is derived from cotton and designed to absorb exudate/drainage from superficial wounds and help control bleeding. HemoStyp hemostatic gauze is a flexible, silk-like material that is applied by placing the gauze onto the bleeding tissue. The supple material can be easily folded and manipulated as needed to fit the size of the wound or incision. In surface bleeding and surgical situations, the product quickly converts to a translucent gel that allows the physician or surgeon to monitor the coagulation process. In superficial bleeding situations, HemoStyp can be bonded to an adhesive plastic bandage or integrated into a traditional gauze component to address a range of needs, including traumatic bleeding injuries and prolonged bleeding following hemodialysis. Its customer base includes hospitals, surgery centers, clinics and others.
