The Hemorrhage Control System.
SAMARITAN is a hemorrhage control product designed for rapid deployment in combat care, disaster response and emergency medicine. It stops bleeding, dresses the wound and preps the injury for further treatment.


A game changer in acute trauma care.
SAMARITAN is a proprietary, rapidly curing composition that stops bleeding, seals wounds and stabilizes injuries for further medical care.
It is designed for the full range of trauma, from superficial wounds to arterial bleeds and (sub)amputations, and cures within two minutes, even in the presence of blood or water, without off-gassing.
As a non-thermogenic biological tissue glue, SAMARITAN reinforces hemostasis and stops bleeding quickly without separate taping. It mimics physiological clotting mechanisms and can deliver bioactive ingredients such as antibiotics, analgesics and infection-prevention agents, starting rehabilitation at the point of injury.
