- Sterile surgical hemostat composed of 100% highly purified pharmaceutical-grade porcine gelatin, these massive pads are engineered to provide rapid bleeding control and structural packing, built specifically for extensive surgical procedures, heavy hemorrhaging, or widespread trauma fields where smaller cubes are insufficient
Uses
- Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) Procedures:
- Rolled or packed to act as a high-capacity hemostatic tamponade inside nasal or sinus cavities following complex rhinological operations like septoplasties
- Major Oral & Maxillofacial Reconstructions:
- Applied over large surgical zones following extensive jaw alignments, deep sinus lifts, or major bone harvesting procedures
- Trauma and Emergency Interventions:
- Functions as a highly absorbent mechanical compress to halt heavy hemorrhaging from deep facial lacerations, compound fractures, or acute puncture wounds
- Orthopedic & General Surgery:
- Placed across large exposed soft-tissue flaps or deep osseous defects to control capillary and venous oozing where traditional pressure or suture ligatures are impractical
Features
- Massive Macro-Block Geometry (125x80x10mm):
- Delivers a vast surface template that can be used as a whole pad or cleanly carved down with sterile shears into precise custom geometries without shredding or crumbling
- High-Purity Porcine Matrix:
- Formulated from a water-soluble, pH-neutral porcine gelatin framework that is non-toxic, non-allergenic, non-immunogenic, and non-pyrogenic
- Exceptional Fluid Absorption Multiplier:
- Naturally pulls in between 35 to 50 times its physical weight in blood and wound exudates, swelling slightly to exert a light, local mechanical compression against damaged vessels
- Rapid Bioresorbable Timeline:
- Completely breaks down in vivo via natural cellular enzymatic digestion within 3 to 7 days when exposed to open surface fluids, or up to 4 to 6 weeks if fully enclosed within deep bone cavities
- High-Utility Medication Transport:
- The uniform porous mesh serves as an excellent delivery vehicle; it can be pre-saturated with liquid antibiotics, thrombin, or specialized therapeutic liquids
Benefits
- Rapid Hemostasis Activation:
- Upon saturation, the foam rapidly forms a sticky, gel-like matrix that mechanically traps platelets and triggers the body's natural coagulation cascade to arrest heavy bleeding in moments
- Enhanced Soft-Tissue Recovery:
- Fosters cleaner, faster local tissue granulation compared to traditional heavy gauze packing, minimizing post-operative flap inflammation
- Absolute Cross-Contamination Prevention:
- Gamma-sterilized and sealed inside individual ready-to-tear blister or envelope packaging, ensuring absolute sterility for every individual patient procedure
- No Painful Retrieval Needed:
- Because the gelatin core dissolves completely on its own, clinicians and patients are spared from secondary follow-up appointments to pull or scrape out hardened, dry dressings
