Haemostatic wound dressings are described. The dressings comprise a non-colloidal porous dressing material, and a plurality of fibrinogen-binding peptides immobilised to the non-colloidal porous dressing material, wherein each fibrinogen-binding peptide comprises: an amino acid sequence Gly-Pro-Arg-Xaa (SEQ ID NO: 1) at an amino-terminal end of the peptide, wherein Xaa is any amino acid other than Val, preferably Pro, Sar, or Leu; or an amino acid sequence Gly-His-Arg-Xaa (SEQ ID NO: 2) at an amino-terminal end of the peptide, wherein Xaa is any amino acid other than Pro. The dressings are able to accelerate haemostasis without requiring enzymatic activity. In particular, the dressings to do not rely on the action of exogenous thrombin, and can be stored long-term at room temperature in solution. Methods of making the dressings, and use of the dressings to control bleeding are also described.
