INSTASPON gelatin Sponge has hemostatic properties. INSTASPON
gelatin Sponge absorbs completely, with little tissue reaction, when
excessive amounts are not used. When used in appropriate amounts,
INSTASPON gelatin Sponge is absorbed completely within 4 to 6 weeks. In
an animal implantation study, tissue reactions were classified as negligible
when observed macroscopically, and moderate when observed
microscopically with INSTASPON Sponge. When applied to bleeding
mucosal regions, it liquefies within 2 to 5 days.

A) Dry Use:
Cut the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge to desired size and shape.
Manually compress the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge prior to applying to the bleeding site.
Hold the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge in place with moderate pressure until hemostasis is
achieved.
Removal of excess INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge upon achieving hemostasis can be
accomplished by gentle irrigation of the site with sterile saline solution to completely wet the
sponge.
Use only the amount required to achieve hemostasis and remove any excess.
B) Use With Sterile Saline or Thrombin Preparation:
Cut the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge to desired size and shape.
Immerse the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge cut to size in the solution.
Withdraw sponge and squeeze between gloved fingers to expel air bubbles.
Return sponge to the solution until needed. The INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge should promptly
return to its original size and shape in the solution. If it does not, remove the sponge from the
solution and vigorously knead it between gloved fingers until all air is expelled and it can
return to its original size and shape when placed in the solution.
Blot sponge to desired dampness on gauze before applying to the bleeding site.
Hold the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge in place with gauze using moderate pressure until
hemostasis is achieved.
Removal of gauze is aided by wetting with a few drops of saline, which helps prevent removal
of the INSTASPON Gelatin Sponge and clot.
