Hemospan

Hemospan is a medical product designed to act as a blood substitute, particularly for patients who require emergency blood transfusions due to trauma, surgery, or medical conditions. It works by carrying oxygen in the bloodstream, helping to maintain adequate oxygen levels when natural blood is not available or is insufficient. Hemospan is made from modified hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that transports oxygen. The goal is to provide a temporary solution while minimizing the risks associated with traditional blood transfusions, such as allergic reactions or infections.
