Features & Benefits

Illustration of clotting

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.7-8,15,*,† 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

SURGICEL Powder

* 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
≠ As demonstrated in vitro
≤ Based on a preclinical animal study
≥ As shown in animal models
† vs Arista
†† Based on a pre‐clinical animal study. Re‐bleeding did not occur in 90% of evaluated test sites
