Description

 We hope you never need it, but if you're faced with life threatening bleeding far from help and usual dressings aren't enough, haemostatic gauze is a life-saver. 

Manufacturer's Description: 

The Prometheus ChitoGauze XR Pro heralds a new era in topical wound haemostatic agents. Unlike many conventional dressings, this product seamlessly adapts to diverse wound contours, facilitating effortless packing and swift bleeding control. With its chitosan-enriched design, ChitoGauze XR Pro promises limited particle shedding into wounds, setting it apart from other alternatives.

Chitosan, a natural and biocompatible polysaccharide, augments the gauze's haemostatic efficiency. This enhanced coating interacts optimally with blood to manage bleeding, whilst its unique blend with HemCon's proprietary manufacturing ensures blood movement deceleration through the dressing. Furthermore, it aids clotting at a localised level by binding red blood cells and platelets, acting independently from the traditional clotting cascade. The result? A pioneering dressing that stands unparalleled in wound care and bleeding control. 

  • Haemostatic Chitosan Gauze: Specially designed to control severe bleeding quickly.
  • X-Ray Opaque Strip: Allows for easy detection during medical imaging.
  • Flexible & Conformable: The gauze-like dressing effortlessly adapts to varying tissue surfaces, ensuring optimal wound coverage.
  • Powder & Granule-Free: Delivers treatment without any residues, ensuring clean application and removal.
  • Safety & Efficacy: Tested and proven to be safe and highly effective in managing blood loss.
  • Easy Application: Z-folded in a sterile package for rapid deployment in emergencies.
  • Antibacterial Properties: Guards against a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including MRSA and VRE.
  • Independently Effective: Operates irrespective of the clotting cascade for efficient bleeding control.
  • Minimal Training Needed: Intuitive design allows for straightforward application with simple pressure until bleeding ceases.
  • Atraumatic Removal: Designed for painless removal without the need for debridement.
  • Latex-Free & Sterile: Ensures compatibility and safety for all users.
