An arterial stapler is a surgical device used to close broken blood vessels. This device is also called a hemostatic forceps and, in its simplest form, is one of the most widely used devices in modern medicine. Combat doctors and civilian paramedics commonly use hemostatic forceps to save patients who are in imminent danger of dying due to severe blood loss. Proper use can save valuable time for patients waiting to be transported to the hospital.
