Description
Gelfoam sponges are sterile absorbable gelatin sponges that are individually wrapped in a sterile envelope. The compressed sponge is a medical device designed for hemostasis specifically in surgical use. It is made of a porous, non-elastic pliable product that is water insoluble and off-white in color. It is prepared from purified porcine skin. The sponge is used in a variety of surgical procedures, and it is designed to be easy to handle and maneuver during surgery.
The Gelfoam sponge is used to control bleeding by applying pressure to the affected area. It is also useful for absorbing blood and other fluids in the surgical area, helping to keep the surgical field clear and clean. Since it is absorbent, it can be used to soak up excess blood and other fluids, making it a useful tool in both surgical and post-surgical settings. The Gelfoam sponge has the ability to conform to the shape of the area where it is applied. This allows for a secure and stable fit, which helps to control bleeding and other fluid accumulation. The sponge is also easy to remove and will not leave any residue behind, making it a convenient and efficient choice for surgical procedures.
