“I have had the opportunity to use Pro QR in a variety of applications. These include the use of the product
to stop bleeding around ostomy sites, in wound beds with friable skin margins, around bleeding trach stoma
sites and around both venous and arterial catheters where homeostasis was vital. In one such situation, I
used it around a central venous catheter in a patient with a coagulopathy. All measures to stop the
bleeding had been utilized to no avail, the patient required two units of packed cells.... The product was
applied with immediate control of the bleeding. I used it around an arterial sheath with like results. More
common uses such as skin tears and nosebleeds have also proven successful.”
D. Cleland, RN North East Georgia Medical Center
“In Interventional Radiology, we deal with oozing central venous catheters and sheaths, bleeding venous
malformations and nosebleeds from hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasias (HHT).
We have found that your products have been an effective and efficient modality in our arsenal. Our PA's,
Fellows and attending physicians use your product on a daily basis. Thank you…”
G. Snyder, PA-C IR, Johns Hopkins Hospital
“We have used QR on 8 Dialysis Fistula Interventions with hemostasis achieved within 1-2 minutes; most
were accessed with 6-7fr sheaths. QR has been used on other venous access procedures with similar
results. I would have to say that QR has worked amazingly well and we are excited about the future
possibilities of the product in IR.”
B.S. Comer, RT R CV, Piedmont Hospital, GA
“….very good and very cost effective. You get an immediate scab.”
Dr. Adams, Emergency Medicine, Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago, IL
“QR Power is effective in treating patients with bleeding external tumors. “I really like it. On a scale of one
to five, it’s probably a four or five”.
L. Woodward, RN, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston TX
“My dermatology surgery practice has found a real secret weapon – QR Powder! This product is
indispensable for controlling surgical bleeding and preparing skin grafts sites, especially for our many
patients on blood thinners. Thank you so much!”
M. Dunn, MD, Mohs Micrographic Surgeon, Intercoastal Medical Group, FL
A new patient, currently taking aspirin, Vitamin E, and Plavix, underwent 3 shave excision/biopsies for
suspicion of basal cell carcinomas. Hemostasis was achieved, and he was sent home with bandages on his
wound. That evening …… I received a call that the patient was bleeding. I met the patient at my office who
was continuing to bleed profusely from his small shave biopsy sites. I applied pressure to no avail and then
tried to stop the bleeding with radiofrequency and electrocoagulation. When nothing seemed to work, I
remembered …QR powder. I was delighted to see the bleeding stop immediately after the application of the
powder. The patient was relieved and so was this humble doctor. Since then I have recommended [QR
powder] to my patients on Plavix and blood thinners who have surgery in my office or complain of bleeding
problems. It is a very useful addition to our armamentarium.
T. Cronin Jr MD, Melbourne, FL
I have been in practice 22 years and have used several products for wound care. None of them are as
effective and easy to use as QR. Your product provides immediate hemostasis with no change in overall
wound appearance. The wound can be easily evaluated after using the QR powder and I no longer have
to worry about a patient getting a bleed through the dressing on their way home. We now have your
product in my regular office and in use daily. Anyone doing invasive procedures in an office setting needs
this product.”
K. Brattain, DPM, Methodist Wound and Vascular Care Center
“I had a coumadin patient (who tried to cut her own callus) bleeding, applied QR powder and she stopped
bleeding in less than 5 seconds.”
R. Pokrass, D.P.M.
“For a bleeding disorder patient, nosebleeds, lacerations or any kind of skin tear can continue to bleed for
hours or days. QR Powder can work instantly for nosebleeds associated with hemophilia, inhibitors, von
Willebrand disease, Glanzmann’s Thrombastenia and thrombocytopenia from aplastic anemia or secondary
to bone marrow transplants/chemotherapy. Our hospital uses QR in the ER, bone marrow transplant unit,
on the floors and in the outpatient hematology/oncology clinic. Our staff was even able to use the powder
for a very severe nosebleed on an inhibitor patient with excellent results. This saved having to infuse
thousands of dollars worth of recombinant factor VII”.
M. Torres, MD, Cook Children’s Hematology Oncology Department
NOSEBLEED
“I used Nosebleeds PRO QR® tonight on a fairly brisk anterior bleed in someone on Coumadin (INR=2.2),
and it worked awesome! It saved this 83 year-old woman from the discomfort of having to go home with a
Hemostatic balloon or Rapid Rhino.”
R. Casci, DO, South County Hospital, RI
I treated a 15 year old with aplastic anemia and thrombocytopenia who came into the ER with a severe
nosebleed. I used the QR for Nosebleeds and it worked really, really well… He stopped bleeding.
Otherwise, I would have had to pack him… His hematology doctor was really impressed…”
B.S. Skrainka, MD, FAAP, FACEP, Pediatric Emergency Department, St. Vincent Children’s Hospital of

“I have always used silver nitrate to stop simple epistaxis with fair success. About a week ago I was having
trouble getting silver nitrate to work. I tried some of your product and followed the directions exactly.
Presto! Instant cessation of nosebleed. I’m a believer!”
James Maddox, MD, PA, Garland, TX
“To say that I am impressed with [QR for Nosebleeds] is very much an understatement and QR will
definitely change how I practice. I have even suggested that this be available in our emergency
department, if for no other reason than to prevent me from having to go in at 0200 to stop an uncontrolled
nosebleed. I think that my HHT patient has had less bleeding also since I did not have to cauterize him.
None of the “regular” nosebleeds I’ve treated with it have recurred as of yet”.

“As an Emergency Room physician, I have found QR Powder particularly helpful
in a broad range of bleeding events. I use it frequently and it works very well for
deep abrasions, avulsions, skin tears, cuts, punctures, varicose veins and
anterior epistaxis. It is especially effective for elderly patients on warfarin agents,
and patients with low platelets or bleeding disorders.”
