Absorbable Polysaccharide Hemostat

SuperClot

SuperClot® Absorbable Polysaccharide Hemostat is a medical device composed of absorbable modified polymer (AMP®) particles and delivery applicator. AMP® particles are biocompatible, non-pyrogenic and derived from purified plant starch. The device contains no human or animal components.

SuperClot® is intended as an absorbable hemostat system to control bleeding during surgical procedures or following traumatic injuries.

How does SuperClot® work?

AMP® particles have a molecular structure that rapidly absorbs water from the blood. This dehydration process causes a high concentration of platelets, red blood cells, and coagulation proteins (thrombin, fibrinogen, etc.) which accelerates the normal, physiologic clotting cascade.

In contact with blood, AMP® particles support the formation of a gelled, adhesive matrix which provides a mechanical barrier to further control bleeding. Absorption occurs within a few days as AMP® particles are degraded by amylase and glucoamylase.

Gel forming adhesiveness
data comparing SuperClot® with other hemostatic powders
gel forming adhesiveness was tested at 25% of each powder‘s maximum water absorption capacity.

Conclusion: SuperClot® is 5 times more adhesive than the competitors.

APPLICATION TECHNIQUE

1) DRY
Gauze dry the wound and remove all excess blood.

2) APPLY
Immediately after removing excess blood, apply SuperClot® over the entire wound.

3) COMPRESS
Apply direct pressure over SuperClot® using moist gauze for 1 to 2 minutes.

4) IRRIGATE
