ClinConnect Summary
The REVIVE clinical trial is studying a new foam treatment called ResQFoam for patients who are experiencing severe abdominal bleeding due to trauma. This foam is designed to help control bleeding when surgical intervention (emergency surgery) is needed quickly. The goal of the study is to evaluate how safe and effective this foam is for patients who are in critical condition, specifically those showing signs of significant blood loss.
To be eligible for this trial, participants must be at least 15 years old and have a serious abdominal hemorrhage that requires immediate medical attention. They should also be receiving blood or fluids to help with their condition. If someone decides to take part in the study, they can expect to receive the foam treatment shortly after arriving at the emergency department, and their condition will be closely monitored as they prepare for surgery. It’s important to know that certain patients, such as those with specific injuries or medical conditions, may not be able to participate in this trial.

- • 5. Subject is intubated and sedated per local guidelines
- • 6. Decision to administer foam is made within 30 minutes of admission to the emergency department.
- • 7. Decision made to proceed to emergent laparotomy made within 30 minutes of admission to the emergency department.
- • 8. Definitive surgical care is expected to occur within three hours of foam deployment
- • 9. Subject must also be receiving concurrent transfusion of fluids or blood products.
- Exclusion Criteria:
- • 10. Known or suspected major diaphragm injury
