Product description

Recommended in various surgical procedures for haemostasis; used when control of bleeding (capillary, venous and arteriolar) by conventional pressure and ligation procedures is ineffective. Sterile, single use

Key Features

  • HYGITECH haemostatic sponges are sponges made of high quality, processed and highly purified gelatine (of porcine origin)
  • Delivered in a sterile blister pack

Easy to use and malleable

  • HYGITECH haemostatic sponges can be cut to fit the bleeding site.

Insoluble in water

  • They have a rapid absorption capacity equivalent to 40 - 50 times its weight in blood or other fluids thanks to their high macroporosity

Biocompatible and non-pyrogenic

  • They offer good adhesion to the haemorrhagic site favouring the formation of the fibrin network essential for good coagulation.

Resorption

  • Complete resorption in 3-4 weeks
