A prospective, single-blind, randomized, phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fibrin sealant Grifols as an adjunct to hemostasis compared with manual compression in vascular surgery. J Vasc Surg 2019; 70: 1642-1651

Published: 23rd December 2019

Authors: Nenezić D, Ayguasanosa J, Menyhei G, Tamas H, Mátyás L, Muluk S et al.

Conclusion

The use of fibrin sealant in this study that included 168 patients with moderate arterial bleeding after arterial surgery improved the number with haemostasis within 4min from 22.8 to 76.1 per cent, P<0.001.
