1. A proven Absorbable Sterile Hemostatic Powder
to Control Bleeders During All Types of
Surgeries and Dental Procedures

2. • Experiencing bleeders during surgery is very common
• Some bleeders are difficult to control

3. • Fabric pads
• Gauzes
• Sponges
• Sutures
• Lasers
• Powders

4. • Trim to fit in the bleeding area
 Difficult to use trimmings for non-sterile area
• Some are absorbable
 Weeks to be absorbed
• Should remove when applied in sensitive areas
 Could also remove the clot if proper procedure is not followed
• Most are of animal origin (bovine or porcine)
 Could result in allergic reaction
 Regulatory concern
• Some are of Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (Wood Pulp)
• Weeks to be absorbed

5. • Use on severed arteries and blood vessels
• Catgut supply becoming limited due to BSE issues
• Synthetic suture not always absorbable
• Some synthetic suture knots could lose tension resulting in seepage
• Hemostasis use limited to type of bleeders

6. • Generated coagulation by generation of heat
• Limited use
• Equipment could be very expensive

7. • Over the counter Blood Stop Powders
Non-sterile
Use only on topical wounds
• Sterile Hemostatic Powders used in surgery
Oxidized Cellulose (OC)
• Cotton Fiber

• 100% plant origin
• Contains two ingredients
50% Microporous Polysaccharide Hemopheres (MPH)
• Derived from potato starch

19. Packaging:
• Foil sachet in resealable tube for use in most surgical procedures
• Syringe type applicator for hemostasis in small difficult to reach areas
• The two types of packaging allow easy and versatile application for all types of
surgeries
• Left over HemaBlock powder can be used in non-sterile applications

enclosed in the wound
• The clot will start being absorbed almost immediately after enclosed
in the wound

21. • Hemablock could reduce cost in surgical and dental procedures
• Faster hemostasis (clotting)
• Less time patient on the operating table
• Less time patient under anesthesia

22. • HemaBlock powder is excellent for control seepage along suture line

28. R.A.P.I.D.
For successful results with HemaBlock the five R.A.P.I.D. steps should be followed.

29. R.A.P.I.D.
Remove excess blood to easily identify bleeders and allow applying
HemaBlock Powder directly on the active bleeder.

30. R.A.P.I.D.
Applyplenty of HemaBlock Powder on the bleeder.
• Be sure to completely cover the bleeding area

31. R.A.P.I.D.
Pressure Enough pressure needs to be applied to stop the flow of the bleeders
for approximately 1 to 2 minutes to allow time for HemaBlock Powder to create the
clot.

32. R.A.P.I.D.
Irrigatethe wound area with saline solution to remove excess powder to check
for bleeders might have missed.

33. R.A.P.I.D.
Deliveredhemostasis (clotting) is evident after irrigation and the wound site is ready
for traditional closure methods.
