Hemostasis is recognized as the initial, immediate stage of the wound healing process, serving to stop bleeding and form a clot as described in [1], [2], and [3]. While some debate exists regarding its classification as a distinct phase versus part of the inflammatory stage, it is consistently identified as the preliminary step in the four-stage model of wound healing [4], [5], and [6].
