Abstract Microneedle patches have been extensively employed for wound healing, while the lack of rapid hemostasis efficiency and multiple tissue-repair properties restrict their values in hemorrhagic wound applications. Herein, we propose a Yunnan Baiyao-loaded multifunctional microneedle patch, namely (BY + EGF)@MN, with deep tissue penetration, hemostasis efficiency and regenerative properties for hemorrhagic wound healing. The (BY + EGF)@MNs are designed with a BY-loaded Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) base for rapid hemostasis and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-loaded GelMA tips for subsequent wound healing. As the BSP base can be fastly dissolved and completely release BY in 6 min to promote platelet adhesion and activate coagulation system, while the EGF can achieve a controlled and sustained release behavior in 7 days with the gradual degradation of the GelMA tips, the (BY + EGF)@MNs exhibit strong pro-coagulability and satisfactory hemostatic effect in a rat hepatic hemorrhage wound model. Based on the multifunctional characteristics, we have verified that when applied in rat cutaneous wounds, the proposed MNs can accelerate the wound healing process by enhancing neovascularization, fibroblast density, and collagen deposition. Thus, we believe that such (BY + EGF)@MNs are promising candidates for rapid hemostasis and diverse wound healing applications. Graphical Abstract
