Uncontrolled haemorrhage remains the leading cause of prehospitaltrauma deaths which are potentially preventable. Several haemostaticproducts are currently available. One of the chemical haemostaticagents is Feracrylum which is a water-soluble mixture of incomplete ferrous salt (II and III) of polyacrylic acid. It has a molecular weight of500,000-800,000 Daltons because of which it is not absorbedsystemically and has no adverse effects on the liver, kidney, adrenals,cardiovascular and haemostatic systems. Feracrylum also exhibits antimicrobial activity thus reduces risk of wound infection
