Essential Tool to Control Bleeding*
Haemostasis you can count on
• Stops bleeding in 2 minutes or less (median time to haemostasis)1
• Stops bleeding 97% of the time within 6 to 10 minutes1
• Works at the beginning and the end of the coagulation cascade2
• Proven haemostasis even in coagulopathic patients2

Unique patented gelatin granules and human thrombin
forms a mechanically stable clot throughout the lesion area that
is bioresorbed in a normal wound healing time of 6–8 weeks.2

FLOSEAL is the only haemostat available that has been proven
to rapidly and effectively stop bleeding in the entire spectrum,
from oozing to pulsatile arterial spurting.1,3
*When control of bleeding by ligature or conventional procedures is ineffective or impractical.
