The ETHICON Surgicel Fibrillar (Model 1962) is a sterile, absorbable hemostatic agent designed for use as an adjunct in surgical procedures to control bleeding. This specific product is a soft, lightweight, layered form of Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (ORC), measuring 2 inches x 4 inches.
Surgicel Fibrillar is indicated for situations involving continuous oozing from capillaries, veins, and small arteries where conventional methods of bleeding control (like ligation) are impractical or ineffective. Its mechanism of action (MOA) involves providing a matrix that facilitates platelet adhesion and aggregation, thereby promoting clot formation.
Key features include:
- Absorption Time: The material is fully absorbed by the body within 7-14 days.
- Preparation Time: It is ready to use directly out of the package, simplifying intraoperative use.
- Storage: Requires storage at controlled room temperature, between 59º-86ºF (15º-30ºC).
- Shelf Life: Has a shelf life of 3 years.
- Material/Composition: Made of Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (ORC).
