Features & Benefits

SURGICEL Powder Absorbable Haemostat penetrates through the blood to stop bleeding at the source, effectively achieving haemostasis in a wet field5,6≠

SURGICEL Powder Absorbable Haemostat penetrates through the blood to stop bleeding at the source, effectively achieving haemostasis in a wet field5,6≠

The structure of SURGICEL Powder Absorbable Haemostat allows it to penetrate the surface of the blood to get to the source of bleeding.13,14

SURGICEL Powder Absorbable Haemostat provides a surface for platelet adhesion and aggregation, working with the patient's endogenous clotting factors to initiate clot formation10

Control of Bleeding

Control of Bleeding

SURGICEL Powder provides efficient control of continuous oozing bleeding on broad surfaces.7-8± After haemostasis has been achieved, irrigation of excess powder can be performed and the bleeding site will not re-bleed.9≤ Fully absorbable in 7 to 14 days.10≥

Proven Bactericidal

Proven Bactericidal

Proven bactericidal in vitro against a broad range of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms, including various antibiotic-resistant bacteria (MRSA, VRE, PRSP and MRSE)11,12

* Continuous oozing defined as bleeding that will not stop with compression / simple packing

** TTH study of surgicel powder show average time to haemostasis of 30 seconds

*** SURGICEL Powder is neither a drug delivery device or a combination product

^ Trial based on biopsy and abrasion on more than 70 animal livers which had higher effective hemostasis rate (p<0.002) and faster TTH (p<0.001)

¥ is ready to use out of the package with no preparation required
