Fibrin Sealant Kit I.P. (2inch X 4 inch) Uses
Fibrin Sealant Kit is used in surgical procedures to help control bleeding (hemostasis) and to seal tissues. It is commonly applied during cardiovascular, orthopedic, neurosurgery, and general surgery to reduce blood loss and promote wound healing. The kit contains two components – fibrinogen and thrombin – which are mixed at the application site to form a stable fibrin clot.
How Fibrin Sealant Kit works
Fibrin Sealant mimics the final step of the natural blood clotting cascade. When the two components (fibrinogen and thrombin) are combined, thrombin converts fibrinogen into fibrin monomers, which then polymerize to form a stable, elastic fibrin clot. This clot adheres to the wound surface, providing immediate hemostasis and a scaffold for tissue repair. The clot is gradually absorbed by the body during the healing process.
Common side effects of Fibrin Sealant Kit
- Allergic reactions (rare) – rash, itching, difficulty breathing
- Local inflammation or redness at application site
- Fever
- Risk of viral transmission (though products are screened and treated)
- Thromboembolic events (very rare)
