Professional Soldiers ® - View Single Post - Fluid replacement with O2-carrying capacity?

There has been a lot of talk recently about a new fluid resuscitation product that has oxygen-carrying capacity comparable to blood, but is not. Have any of the 18D types seen or heard of this product? For that matter, can any of the civilian medical personnel on this site confirm this. It seems like it would be an ideal product for battlefield fluid therapy (assuming it keeps well, I have heard different stories on that point).

Thanks
