hem/o/stasis from the prefix hem/o- (meaning blood) and the suffix -stasis (meaning stopping). To wit, hem/o/rrhage comes from the same prefix hem/o-(meaning blood) and -rrhage (bursting forth or pouring) and means excessive bleeding. Drugs that stop bleeding are the hemo/statics ("blood stoppers") Hemostasis or exsanguination...either way, now; non-emergent.
