[Collagen hemostatic felt for local application in the control of surgical bleeding]

The authors have employed the collagen haemostatic felt in the control of capillary bleeding, parenchymatous haemorrhages and oozing wound haemorrhage in several surgicals cases. Collagen haemostatic felt, apart from its excellent haemostatic properties, is pliable, conforms readily to irregular contours, is soft, has excellent absorptive capacity and has good tissue compatibility.
