FLOSEAL [Hemostatic Matrix] Indications
FLOSEAL [Hemostatic Matrix] 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.
Important Safety Information
FLOSEAL must not be injected into blood vessels, or
allowed to enter blood vessels. Do not apply in the
absence of active bleeding. Extensive intravascular
clotting and even death may result.
Do not use FLOSEAL in the closure of skin incisions
because it may interfere with the healing of the
skin edges.
Do not use FLOSEAL in patients with known allergies to
materials of bovine origin.
FLOSEAL is made from human plasma. It may carry a
risk of transmitting infectious agents, e.g., viruses, and
theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent.
