Gee....I thought they already had something like this...works like superglue.
They aren’t talking about plugging a small hole. They are talking about plugging gaping wounds too close to the main joint to effectively use a tourniquet. Like an armpit, or a groin injury.
I was thinking, “Fix-a-Flat”.
If small wounds or cuts can be closed with the medical ‘super glue’ why can’t they use a similar technique to fix a small 12 mm shallow Rotator Cuff tear? Why wait until it gets much larger and needs more invasive surgery and Rehab? Micro surgery and a few self dissolving stitches should work in theory.
