    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Biomaterials Science

    Background:

    • Clinical application of fibrin gluing in cardiovascular surgery has over four years of experience.
    • Fibrin glue is utilized prophylactically for preclotting prostheses and sealing suture lines.

    Observation:

    • Fibrin glue combined with collagen fleece effectively controls superficial bleeding.
    • This combination is particularly useful for adhesions or hard-to-reach bleeding sources.

    Findings:

    • The fibrin gluing and collagen fleece method proves highly effective in managing bleeding during cardiovascular procedures.
    • Two clinical cases highlight the life-saving potential of this combined approach.

    Implications:

    • This technique offers a valuable tool for improving hemostasis in complex cardiovascular surgeries.
    • Further investigation into fibrin gluing and collagen fleece applications may enhance patient outcomes.
