Evaluation of the hemostatic effect of 25% red mangrove gel in acute hemorrhage

Introduction: In traditional medicine, hemostatic effects are attributed to parts of the red mangrove plant (Rhizophora mangle). Objective: To evaluate the hemostatic effect of 25% red mangrove gel on acute hemorrhage. Methods: A study was carried out in an animal model with 5 groups of albino ra...

description Introduction: In traditional medicine, hemostatic effects are attributed to parts of the red mangrove plant (Rhizophora mangle). Objective: To evaluate the hemostatic effect of 25% red mangrove gel on acute hemorrhage. Methods: A study was carried out in an animal model with 5 groups of albino rats; group I (warfarin), II (phytomenadione), III (0.9% sodium chloride), IV (untreated control) and V (25% red mangrove gel). One limb amputation was produced and the bleeding time (in min) and the amount of bleeding (in g) were measured. A mean comparison analysis was performed with the results of the measurements. Results: For bleeding time, the means and standard deviations were as follows: Group I (3.12 ± 0.35), group II (1.25 ± 0.30), group III (2.94 ± 0.42); group IV (2.10 ± 0.36) and group V (0.71 ± 0.10). For the amount of bleeding, the means and standard deviations were: Group I (2.97 ± 0.20), group II (1.15 ± 0.38), group III (2.36 ± 0.30), group IV (2.90 ± 0.92) and group V (1.16 ± 0.36). For both variables there were statistically significant differences of groups II and V (p< 0.05) with the other groups and none between group II and IV. Conclusions: The 25% red mangrove gel presents hemostatic effect similar to phytomenadione, according to the duration and amount of bleeding.
