As with almost all trauma surgery procedures, controlling bleeding can be a main concern. If the surgery is dealing with damage control surgery with potentially multiple injuries, surgeons and their teams need to manage the patient’s needs and deal with each of them.

Now the FDA cleared, ChitoFlex-Surgical hemostatic dressing provides the assistance for control that is needed in surgery for key internal procedures.

In addition to its hemostatic properties, the ChitoFlex-Surgical also offers a bacteriocidal barrier against a wider variety of bacteria and staph including MRSA. With the ability to stop severe bleeding within 2-5 minutes even for patients on anticoagulants, HemCon is doing its share to keep the care team moving.
