Wound Clot Gauze, is a single use, sterile and bio-absorbable medical device made from cellulosic structure. Upon application and contact with blood molecular structure changes to form a gelatinous membrane which adheres to the wound creating a mechanical barrier to immediately reduce blood, flow.
Platelets from the injury attach to the gauze by inter molecular forces to form a stable membrane, which is able to withstand severe arterial and venous blood flow for hours. Specific molecular groups, created in the manufacturing process, are then dispersed during gel formation to activate various coagulation factors in the blood, thus helping to form a physiologically natural fibrin clot in the wound.
After bleeding has stopped, the remaining residual membrane can be irrigated out of the wound safely without pulling on soft tissue or the existing clot.
