medichema GmbH · source
The medical device mediCipio ® A is a completely absorbable hemostatic agent made from oxidized, regenerated cellulose (ORC) and porcine collagen, without the use of human fibrinogen and thrombin. The patented two-layered structure of mediCipio A combines the reliable hemostyptic effect, absorbency and adhesiveness of the ORC layer with stability, compatibility and wound-healing properties of the collagen layer.
Applications
mediCipio ® A is induced for use in open or minimally invasive surgery. Thereby it can be used to support tissue sealing as well as postoperative hemostasis, especially in case of oozing or pooling/confluent bleeding.
