Description

Surgifoam Absorbable Gelatin Sponges are designed to assist in hemostasis, particularly in surgical procedures where bleeding needs to be controlled. These sponges are made from porcine gelatin, providing a matrix for platelet adhesion and aggregation, which is crucial for effective clot formation. The sponges come in a size of 0.8" x 2.4" x 0.27" (2 cm x 6 cm x 7 mm), making them suitable for various surgical applications.

One of the key features of Surgifoam sponges is their absorbability. When applied to bleeding mucosal regions, these sponges liquefy within 2 to 5 days, aiding in the formation of a stable clot. Additionally, they are designed to be absorbed by the body within 4 to 6 weeks, reducing the need for manual removal and minimizing the risk of foreign body reactions.

The sterile packaging ensures that the sponges remain free from contaminants, making them safe for use in surgical procedures. Surgifoam Absorbable Gelatin Sponges are a reliable option for surgeons seeking an effective hemostatic agent that can help promote clotting and minimize post-operative bleeding.
