Stop bleeding with Histoacryl
Part of Digestive system, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a glue-like substance called Histoacryl® to stop bleeding in the chest or belly. It is injected directly into the bleeding spot seen on scans or with a camera, and may help avoid surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have active bleeding in your chest or belly that a doctor has confirmed with a scan or camera.
- Your doctor plans to use only Histoacryl® to stop the bleeding (no other materials).
- If you had a previous aortic repair, there are no leaks.
- If you have cancer, you are expected to live at least another month.
- You have not had this treatment before in the same area, are not allergic to the glue, and are not pregnant (unless the bleeding is from after childbirth).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a liquid material called Onyx that is injected into blood vessels to stop active bleeding in areas like the arms, legs, belly, or chest. It may help people with uncontrolled bleeding that needs to be blocked quickly.
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 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 trial tests if a simple gel injection works as well as gel plus a suction procedure for treating abnormal blood vessels in the uterus that cause bleeding after a miscarriage. If you had a miscarriage in the last 3 months and have ongoing bleeding, this study may offer a less invasive option.
This trial tests if blocking certain blood vessels in the rectum can reduce bleeding and other symptoms from hemorrhoids. If you have bothersome internal hemorrhoids that haven't been helped by other treatments or if surgery is not an option for you, this study may be a fit.
This trial studies a procedure that blocks blood flow to bleeding hemorrhoids (called superior rectal arterial embolization). It may help people with hemorrhoid bleeding who are being considered for treatment, especially when bleeding is significant.
