Classifying the hemostatic armamentarium of the surgeon [PDF]
Hemorrhage can result in an increased mortality and morbidity. There are a variety of options to assist the surgeon in achieving hemostasis. Modalities that result, or assist, in hemostasis were included under the term Hemostatic Modalities.
