EFFECTIVE BLEEDING CONTROL RELIABLE ADHESION PREVENTION

starsil® Hemostat is a CE-marked Class 3 medical device that can be used to achieve rapid hemostasis for profuse and diffuse bleedings as well as reliable adhesion prevention — even in difficult to reach regions.

SAFE AND BIOCOMPATIBLE

Unlike many other surgical hemostats or adhesion prevention products STARSIL® HEMOSTAT is absorbed without residues within 48 to 72 hours through endogenous amylase, preventing foreign body reactions or granuloma formation and once fully irrigated, will not swell post operatively.

ACTS FAST AND IS EASY TO USE

STARSIL® HEMOSTAT is ready to use and can be stored in the OR without refrigeration. After removal of the cap the STARSIL® HEMOSTAT particles can be used immediately without assembly or preparation. It can be easily applied to large areas or difficult to reach regions. There is no risk of overdosage.

bleedinG contRol and Hemostasis

On contact, the ultra hygroscopic STARSIL® HEMOSTAT particles rapidly absorb fluid from the blood.
The process leads to a local concentration of corpuscular blood particles such as erythrocytes,
thrombocytes as well as serum proteins and thrombin, accelerating the natural coagulation cascade. It forms a dense gel matrix that seals the wound and further blood flow from the wound is inhibited. STARSIL® HEMOSTAT is not affected by the patient's clotting status, therefore it is also suitable for patients under anticoagulation therapy.

adHesion pReVention baRRieR 

Unlike many other anti–adhesive products STARSIL® HEMOSTAT is easy to administrate both during open and laproscopic surgery. The STARSIL® HEMOSTAT powder is simply generously applied on the mesothelial defect or tissue that needs protection
subsequently moistened with sterile saline solution. The polysaccharide particles
absorb the fluid and form a dense gelatinous barrier preventing the contact with other tissue during the critical postoperative healing phase.

dual use stRateGy 

The use of STARSIL® HEMOSTAT as topical hemostat
provides atraumatic bleeding control and can minimize the use of electrocautery limiting thermal injury to the tissue. When complete hemostasis is achived a second application of STARSIL® HEMOSTAT is used to form a gelatinous adhesion prevention barrier covering the whole affected tissue before closure.
