Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of HEMOBLAST™ compared to FLOSEAL in cardiothoracic operations.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A maximum of 104 subjects will be enrolled across a maximum of 5 study sites in the United States.

The estimated duration of the study is approximately 8 months from the time of first subject enrollment to the last subject enrollment. Enrollment occurs intraoperatively after confirmation of the intraoperative eligibility criteria. Subjects will undergo intraoperative performance assessments and then will be discontinued from the study after completion of the intraoperative visit.

HEMOBLAST Bellows (Hemostatic Device)

Bleeding sites will be treated with HEMOBLAST Bellows per its approved Indications for Use

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

HEMOBLAST Bellows

Intervention Type DEVICE

The HEMOBLAST™ Bellows hemostatic agent consists of a bellows pre-loaded with 1.65g of powder composed of collagen, chondroitin sulfate, and thrombin (1500 IU). HEMOBLAST™ Bellows is indicated in surgical procedures as an adjunct to hemostasis when control of minimal, mild, and moderate bleeding by conventional procedures is ineffective or impractical, except in neurosurgical, ophthalmic, and urological procedures.

FLOSEAL (Hemostatic Device)

Bleeding sites will be treated with FLOSEAL per its approved Indications for Use

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

FLOSEAL

Intervention Type DEVICE

The FLOSEAL Matrix consists of a bovine-derived Gelatin Matrix component, a human-derived Thrombin component, applicator tips, and several mixing accessories. FLOSEAL is indicated in surgical procedures (other than ophthalmic) as an adjunct to hemostasis when control of bleeding by ligature or conventional procedures is ineffective or impractical.
