The topic of this talk is human hemostatic agents in surgery and their availability in the marketplace. The market offers a significant number of choices available for hemostatic agents, however, there’s a lack of standardization that has led to suboptimal use of hemostasis.

When it comes to site definition, the focus is on anatomy & critical surrounding anatomic structures that could be impacted. Nevertheless, the situation encompasses intra-operative versus post-operative bleeding risk, type of access, type of tissue surface, and bleeding intensity.
