Celox™ is an effective high-performance hemostatic material. It is a proprietary marine biopolymer chitosan designed to stop high-volume arterial bleeding. Celox Hemostatic Granules can be used for various applications from deep arterial bleeds to superficial wounds.
Benefits and Features:
- Rapidly controls major arterial bleeding: The granular presentation provides a simple, quick and effective way to stop bleeding and is particularly useful in treating difficult and deep wounds. A clot forms at the site of the injured blood vessel within minutes after pouring the product into the wound. Excess granules form a gelled mass to protect the clot. The gelled material is easy to remove.
- No known side effects: Celox hemostatic does not generate any heat nor does it embed itself into the wound. Celox is derived from shellfish but it does not cause allergic reaction.
- Works on all blood temperatures and heparinized blood: Celox hemostatic works independently of blood clotting factors.
- Lightweight, portable, and easy to administer: The granules are packaged in a sterilized, sealed packet that is easy and fast to open. Pour the granules into the wound and hold down with gauze for 5 minutes. Then wrap a compression bandage over the gauze-covered wound so the patient can be transported.
- Available in 15g and 35g packets
