Absortable Hemostatic Powder
SURGISPON® Absorbable Haemostatic Powder
is a clinically proven CE certified class III medical device that can be used to achieve rapid haemostasis for profuse and diffuse bleedings – even in difficult to reach surgical sites and regions. The modified Gelatine based, absorbable, natural polymer particulate powder accelerates the clotting process to achieve haemostasis quickly and effectively in minutes.
Key Benefits
- Natural, safe & biocompatible with inherent procoagulant activity
- Easy to apply to large areas and irregular surfaces
- Stops bleeding effectively with significantly faster time to haemostasis than MPH powder
- Does not leave voids between clot material and tissue surfaces
- Better mechanical integrity to the clot providing more fibrin matrix within clots
- Better blood absorption capacity than MPH powder with significantly lower chances of rebleeding
- Made from 100% pharmaceutical Gelatin
- pH-neutral can be combined with drugs as indicated
- Fast, complete resorption
- Indicated for general use for capillary, venous and arteriolar bleeding
- No risk of encapsulation and overdosage
- Can be used in patients with anticoagulant therapy
Application Technique
Remove all excess blood from the intended site by blotting, wiping, or suctioning. Removing excess blood allows SURGISPON® powder to make direct contact with the site
Bleeding from the cavity is controlled with the dentel cube.
For profuse bleeding, apply moderate compression to the source of bleeding using a dry compress. Irrigation with saline before carefully removing the gauze is recommended.
Moisten the compress with sterile saline solution before removal and remove it carefully. If bleeding continues, remove excess particles, and repeat the procedure.
Ordering Information
SURGISPON® Putty
SURGISPON® ABSORBABLE POWDER can be applied in a dry form, or as a paste mixed with saline solution. Different consistencies and grades of viscosity can be achieved by varying the powder-to- fluid ratio for optimum use on irregular structures such as bone, and for filling any cavity or fissure as required.
Key Benefits
- Supreme flexibility, adaptability, and easy handling
- Does not cause bone dehiscence like conventional bone waxes
- Can be applied by hand or with a standard syringe to areas that are hard to reach
- Reduces the time the Surgeon needs to revisit cut bone surfaces, to clean up bleeding
- Fast & proven haemostasis for those hard to reach areas and from oozing spongy bone
- Can be easily formed into any shape, according to surgical site
- Stops bleeding fast, within 2 minutes
- Made from 100% pharmaceutical Gelatin
- ph neutral character – can be combined with drugs
- No risk of encapsulation
- Totally biodegraded in less than 4 weeks
- High patient comfort – can be left in situ
Where To Use
In sternotomy and craniotomy procedures – irregular structures such as bone and for filling any hard to reach areas like cavities or fissures to control venous and arteriolar bleeding.
