The Blood Stops Here®
Our vision is to achieve zero preventable deaths due to blood loss.
Blood loss. That term can mean so many things. Trauma on the battlefield or outside the hospital, nosebleeds at a soccer game, excessive bleeding during tooth extraction or a planned knee replacement procedure. Too much blood loss can lead to anemia. Hemorrhagic disorders can lead to hospital readmissions. Uncontrolled hemorrhaging can lead to death.
At Tricol Biomedical, we are committed to zero preventable deaths due to blood loss. Whether it’s our OneStop Vascular Pre-Slit on a heavily tubed ICU patient, our HemCon Dental DressingPro on a tooth extraction patient, GuardaCare-XR Surgical to control bleeding for a patient during a knee replacement procedure, or our ChitoGauze-OTC for use on the sports field, we believe that effective hemostasis is vital to a successful outcome and is our corporate passion.

Our Proprietary Chitosan Products: Chito+
HemCon® PRO hemostatic products possess hemostatic activity that results from a strong polycationic (positive) charge from the incorporated HemCon PRO chitosan. This positive charge correspondingly promotes binding with biopolymers, tissues, and cells possessing inherent negative charge. Tricol’s Chito+ … fast at work.
