Nanoparicles, which could be administered at the most critical moment immediately after a blast, stops internal bleeding in the lungs and could save lives.

Nanoparticles developed by researchers can be injected into a patient to help with internal clot formation to reduce inflammation within the lungs.
The hemostatic dexamethasone nanoparticles (hDNP) consists of a block polymer loaded with steroids. Researchers injected the particles in rats subjected to trauma and found that the nanoparticles increases oxygen levels, reduced internal bleeding and cellular damage in the lungs.
The researchers conclude that the nanoparticles could help alleviate internal bleeding and save lives.
