Hemorrhage Control

Internal bleeding (hemorrhage) can potentially be a serious condition. Bleeding can result from ulcers or ruptured blood vessels in the digestive tract. Physicians may perform a hemostatic procedure such as clipping, band ligation, injection therapy, thermal electrohemostasis, or combination therapy to stop or control the bleeding.
