Glue treatment for bleeding in the belly or chest
Part of Digestive system, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a medical glue, called Histoacryl, to stop active bleeding in blood vessels in the belly or chest. It might be an option for people who need a minimally invasive way to stop bleeding when other treatments haven't worked.

This trial tests two emergency treatments to control heavy bleeding after childbirth when standard medicines haven't worked. One uses a small balloon placed inside the womb, and the other uses a special gauze that helps blood clot.
This study tests a special patch called TachoSil against a standard surgical pad (Surgicel) to see which works better for controlling minor oozing during open abdominal, chest, or pelvic surgeries. It may be an option if you are having certain types of surgery and have a small area of mild bleeding that needs help to stop.
This study compares two ways of stopping bleeding after a miscarriage. You would either get a gel to block the bleeding or get the gel plus a small suction procedure. The goal is to see if just using the gel works as well as the combined method, which could mean a simpler treatment.
This trial tests whether injecting a medical glue into a specific artery in the brain can safely treat a chronic subdural hematoma (a collection of blood on the brain's surface) or a recurrent subdural hematoma. This approach may offer a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery.
This study tests a procedure called hemorrhoidal artery embolization (HAE) that blocks blood flow to bleeding hemorrhoids to reduce or stop the bleeding. It's for people with moderate to severe bleeding from internal hemorrhoids who have not recently had other treatments.
