HEMOSTATIC PATCH WITH INHERENT ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF CHITOSAN

Current hemostatic patches are expensive and are not designed for minimally invasive procedures. LifePatch™ is a lyophilized patch composed of modified chitosan, designed to be used in minimally invasive and open surgical procedures as a hemostatic patch. Consistent with all Life™ Surgical Portfolio formulations, the patch also includes the benefit of having inherent antimicrobial properties of chitosan. [in this application]


LifePatch is undergoing feasibility studies, and has yet to be evaluated by the FDA.
