Hemostatic Dressing
Felix Medical is currently representing Prometheus Medical in Canada for ChitoGauze XR Pro. Prometheus ChitoGauzeĀ® XR Pro is a haemostatic gauze dressing designed to control moderate to very severe haemorrhage. It now features a radio-opaque strip making the dressing easy to identify during X-Ray investigation. ChitoGauze is a hemostatic dressing for the external, temporary control of severely bleeding wounds. It is a hemostatic gauze dressing that, when applied directly to the wound, controls bleeding caused by extreme trauma.

Mechanism of Action

The highly flexible ChitoGauze dressing is easily applied to superficial as well as deep andnarrow wounds. It readily conforms into wound surfaces with complex geometries to rapidly staunch the bleeding and seal the wound site. A unique characteristic of this dressing is its ability to localize clotting to the dressing surface thus mitigating the risk of emboli formation normally associated with use of dressings which achieve activity through inclusion of prothrombogenic agents.
