A Comparative Efficacy Evaluation of Recombinant Topical Thrombin (RECOTHROM®) With A Gelatin Sponge Carrier Versus Topical Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (TABOTAMP®/SURGICEL®) In A Porcine Liver Bleeding Model

Purpose Topical hemostatic agents can be classified as active or passive. This study compared the hemostatic efficacy of an active agent, recombinant thrombin (RECOTHROM® [rT]) plus gelatin sponge carrier versus a passive agent, oxidized regenerated cellulose (TABOTAMP®/SURGICEL® [ORC]), in a porcin...
