QuickClot already has an FDA-cleared product for use for vascular access hemostasis management in cath lab procedures. The hemostatic technology consists of a non-woven material impregnated with kaolin, an inorganic mineral. When kaolin contacts blood it activates Factor XII, which accelerates the body’s natural clotting cascade.

Cardiac CTA derived left atrium emptying fraction (LAEF) improves predictive performance of established clinical risk scores and may be used to assess TAVR patient risk during pre-procedure workup and post-procedural surveillance. These images show LAVmax (A and B), LAVmin (C and D), and LAEF using cardiac CTA. LAEF was calculated as (LAVmax-LAVmin)/LAVmax x 100. Given LAVmax of 109 mL and LAVmin of 80 mL, the LAEF was calculated to be 27%. Image courtesy of AJR.
