Surgi-ORC® Original

Surgi-ORC® Original (Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose Gauze) is highly effective in managing excessive bleeding, a common complication in procedures like myomectomy. Designed to control capillary, venous, and small arterial bleeding, it is especially useful when conventional methods such as suturing or electrical coagulation are inadequate. Made from oxidized regenerated cellulose, Surgi-ORC® promotes hemostasis by activating the body's natural coagulation pathways. Upon contact with blood, it forms a gelatinous mass that acts as a matrix for platelet adherence, rapidly facilitating clot formation. Additionally, the low pH environment it creates induces vasoconstriction, further reducing bleeding, while also offering antimicrobial properties. This dual mechanism—mechanical blockage of the bleeding site and promotion of natural clotting—makes Surgi-ORC® an invaluable tool in controlling bleeding during complex surgical procedures.

Benefits of Surgi-ORC® in Myomectomy:

1. Rapid Hemostasis: achieves hemostasis typically within 2 minutes, reducing the time required to control bleeding and allowing for smoother surgical flow.
2. Biocompatibility and Absorption: fully absorbed by the body within days, eliminating the need for surgical removal and minimizing the risk of foreign body reactions or infections.
3. Ease of Use: Surgi-ORC® is highly regarded for its easy handling, ability to conform to irregular surfaces, and precise cutability, seamlessly integrating into both open and laparoscopic procedures.
4. Reduced postoperative complications: The use of Surgi-ORC® has been associated with a lower rate of postoperative complications, such as rebleeding, leading to smoother recoveries.
