Summary

The purpose of this study was to characterize the safety and hemostatic activity of topical Fibrocaps in surgical patients when control of mild to moderate bleeding by standard surgical techniques was ineffective and/or impractical.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Hemorrhage

Interventions

DEVICE

Fibrocaps (fibrin sealant)

Fibrocaps powder (max dose 1.5g) should be applied directly to the bleeding site or to the Gelfoam and then applied to the bleeding site. Re-application of 1.5 g of Fibrocaps is allowed.

DEVICE

Gelfoam

An identified Target Bleeding Site (TBS) should be treated with application of Gelfoam followed by light manual pressure with a sterile gauze.
