Cutanplast is a sterile gelatine sponge with the ability to reabsorb. It has a marked haemostatic effect which means the porous surface of the gelatin induces the rapid rupture of the blood plaques, causing the activation of the enzymes to cascade, leading to natural coagulation.
CHARACTERISTICS INCLUDE:
1. Completely absorbed if left in-situ2. Non-toxic3. Does not cause allergic reactions4. Has a neutral pH5. Absorbs a quantity of blood corresponding to approximately 50 times its own weight6. May be applied dry7. May be soaked with sterile physiological solution or with antibiotics8. May be easily reduced in size to any required format9. Reduces the time of the surgical operation10. Stops the haemorrhage11. Is reabsorbed within a number of weeks12. Easy to use13. Safe14. Reliable
