Interest in developing new, effective materials for emergency hemostasis and wound healing is steadily increasing, particularly use emergency, surgical, military situations. Hydrogels, with their unique retention, swelling, biocompatibility properties, have emerged as essential therapy. This review provides a comprehensive examination of recent hydrogel applications acute medical scenarios, including hemostasis, management, drug delivery, soft tissue replacement, engineering. We discuss the physicochemical properties that make hydrogels suitable rapid response situations, such tunable mechanical strength, adhesiveness, responsiveness to environmental stimuli, ability encapsulate release therapeutic agents. Additionally, article explores advancements smart self-healing antimicrobial providing insights into potential revolutionize care increase survival rates both civilian applications. Through critical evaluation current clinical trials practical deployments, this highlights successes challenges faced integrating protocols, roadmap future research development dynamic field.
