GELFOAM Sterile Compressed Sponge is a sterile, pliable, surgical sponge prepared from specially treated, purified gelatin solution and capable of absorbing and holding within its meshes many times its weight in whole blood. When implanted in tissues, GELFOAM Sterile Compressed Sponge is completely absorbed within four to six weeks without inducing excessive scar tissue. When applied to bleed areas of the nasal, rectal, or vaginal mucosa, GELFOAM completely liquefies within two to five days.
Sterile absorbable gelatin sponge, for use in oral surgery providing hemostasis. May be used either dry or moistened. Should not be used in closure of incisions because of interference with healing.
