Hemopure (HemoTherapeutics)

Hemopure is a blood substitute developed by HemoTherapeutics that mimics the oxygen-carrying function of natural red blood cells. It contains a purified form of hemoglobin, the protein responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Hemopure is used to treat patients who need blood transfusions but may not have access to donated blood or in emergencies where blood supply is limited. Unlike traditional blood, it’s not derived from human donors, reducing the risk of infections or transfusion reactions. It offers an alternative option to help improve oxygen delivery and support patient health in critical situations.
