Material/Composition

Human fibrinogen, human thrombin, composite patch (PG910 (VICRYL) and ORC)

Mechanism of Action

After appropriate application and manual compression for 3 minutes, blood passes through the patch, rather than pooling beneath it. Activation of fibrinogen and thrombin results in clot formation at the bleeding surface and within the patch. Adhesive strength forms a physical seal with tissue and maintains a flexible barrier to bleeding.
