• Angiotribe — A heavy metallic surgical instrument shaped like a robust clamp, equipped with powerful, serrated jaws used to perform angiotripsy. This complex niche device exerts an extremely high and well-defined mechanical pressure on the wall of a severed blood vessel, aiming to crush the intima and media to trigger hemostasis through the rapid formation of a natural clot, thereby eliminating the need for thread ligatures during operations.
• Angiotripsy — A surgical procedure for achieving hemostasis consisting of the forced, mechanical, and well-defined crushing of the walls of a ruptured or severed blood vessel, using an angiotribe. This surgically induced pathological-structural process destroys the vessel's internal tunic (intima) and middle tunic, causing them to retract and promoting rapid blood coagulation inside the compressed lumen, effectively blocking hemorrhage without using suture threads.
