HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder A proven Absorbable Sterile Hemostatic Powder to Control Bleeders During All Types of Surgeries and Dental Procedures HemaBlock PowerPoint Presentation

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Experiencing bleeders during surgery is very common Some bleeders are difficult to control

Types of Hemostatic Products Fabric pads Gauzes Sponges Sutures Lasers Powders

Fabric Pads, Gauzes and Sponges 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 Some are of Oxidized Cellulose

Suture 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

Lasers Generated coagulation by generation of heat Limited use Equipment could be very expensive

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

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Bleed-X Vet is the trade name used for Sales in the United States, Canada and Territories of the United States HemaBlock is the trade name used for Sales in all other countries

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder HemaBlock/Bleed-X Vet 100% plant origin Contains two ingredients 50% Microporous Polysaccharide Hemopheres (MPH) Derived from potato starch 50% Oxidized Cellulose (OC) Derived from cotton fiber

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder MPH the primary clotting agent Safe MPH has been used successfully in over 2,000,000 human applications Over 50 published abstracts on safety and efficacy of MPH

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Combination of MPH and OC Increases the clotting capability of either alone Increases the strength of the clot and HemaBlock

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder HemaBlock for use to control bleeders during surgery and dental procedures in: Companion animals (cats & dogs) Horses Exotic species

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Fast acting Sterile absorbable hemostatic agent Absorbed in just a few days Pain free Uniquely Safe

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Sterile powder ready to use No pre-mixing before use No additional components need to be added No special storage conditions Easy to apply

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Instant clotting (1 to 2 minutes) Promotes rapid healing Non-toxic Lickable

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder 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 Dental Procedures Topical wounds Nail trimmings

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder The clot formed with HemaBlock does not need to be removed after Hemostasis The clot formed with HemaBlock will not continue to expand after enclosed in the wound The clot will start being absorbed almost immediately after enclosed in the wound

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Hemablock could reduce cost in surgical and dental procedures Faster hemostasis (clotting) Less time patient on the operating table Less time patient under anesthesia

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder HemaBlock powder is excellent for control seepage along suture line Sterile HemaBlock powder for control bleeding with all types of surgery

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Application R.A.P.I.D. 5-Step R.A.P.I.D. Application Procedure For successful results the “HemaBlock 5-Step R.A.P.I.D. Application Procedure” should be followed.

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

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Application R.A.P.I.D. Apply plenty of HemaBlock Powder on the bleeder. Be sure to completely cover the bleeding area

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Application 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.

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Application R.A.P.I.D. Irrigate the wound area with saline solution to remove excess powder to check for bleeders might have missed.

HemaBlock Hemostatic Powder Application R.A.P.I.D. Delivered hemostasis (clotting) is evident after irrigation and the wound site is ready for traditional closure methods.
