InnoSEAL Hemostatic Pad is a hydrophilic, lyophilized sponge pad for local management of bleeding wound made of proprietary formulation of chitosan and catechol conjugated chitosan which are biocompatible. InnoSEAL Hemostatic Pad is applied topically as an adjunct to manual compression. InnoSEAL Hemostatic Pad is a single use device individually packaged by PET mold and Aluminum lid and sterilized with gamma irradiation.
A non-bioabsorbable device that includes chitosan (a polysaccharide derived from chitin, the structural element in the exoskeleton of crustaceans) as a principal component, intended to be applied exclusively by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting to traumatic wounds in emergency situations (e.g., road accidents, combat, emergency rescue) or during surgical intervention to produce a rapid haemostasis by forming a robust plug of gel which is removed after use. The chitosan may be intended to provide antibacterial activity, and is available in a variety of forms (e.g., fine particles in a pouch, coated on gauze). This is a single-use device.
