 Redefining Haemostasis in Minimally Invasive Surgery: Surgi-ORC® Powder

Minimally invasive surgical (MIS) like endoscopic and laparoscopic surgery use a small camera-equipped tube to treat or diagnose internal conditions without large incisions. In these procedures, achieving haemostasis is essential. Even minor bleeding can obscure visibility, slow the operation, increase transfusion needs and if bleeding uncontrolled, place the patient at serious risk.1

This is where Surgi-ORC®, an effective haemostat, helps control oozing, reduces blood loss. Keep the field clear for safer and smoother procedures.

What is Surgi-ORC® Powder?

Surgi-ORC® Powder is a sterile, natural, plant-based absorbable oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) endoscopic powder designed to achieve effective haemostasis when applied directly to bleeding tissue or site. The powder format allows uniform dispersion and easy application in endoscopic, laparoscopic, or open surgical procedures.

Revolutionizing Surgical Hemostasis: Introducing Surgi-ORC® Powder (Absorbable Hemostatic Powder)

Image
  In modern surgery, efficiently managing perioperative bleeding is crucial. Uncontrolled surgical bleeding poses significant risks to patient health and leads to substantial clinical and healthcare resource burdens. This challenge is particularly pronounced with an aging population and the rising prevalence of comorbidities and anticoagulant use. To address these issues, topical hemostatic agents have emerged as vital tools, promoting hemostasis where conventional methods fall short. These agents vary widely in properties, mode of action, ease of use, safety, and cost. Their selection often depends on the specific surgical scenario, bleeding situation, and patient’s health status. Exploring Topical Hemostatic Agents The current array of topical hemostatic agents comprises several types, each designed to meet different needs in the surgical setting: Mechanical Agents:  These are regarded as the simplest, safest, and most cost-effective. They offer a structural framework for he...

Role of Surgi-ORC® Fibril and SURGISPON® in Posterior Fossa Tumor Resections

Image
  In posterior fossa tumor resections, Surgi-ORC® Fibril and SURGISPON® play crucial roles in facilitating a successful surgery and promoting optimal patient outcomes. Here's how they contribute to the surgical process: Hemostasis : One of the primary roles of both Surgi-ORC® Fibril and SURGISPON® is to assist in achieving hemostasis, which is the control of bleeding during surgery. Posterior fossa tumor resections can involve intricate procedures near sensitive structures such as the brainstem and cranial nerves, where bleeding must be carefully managed to maintain a clear surgical field and prevent complications. Surgi-ORC® Fibril and SURGISPON® are applied to bleeding surfaces to promote clot formation and minimize bleeding, thus enhancing visibility and surgical precision. Tissue Protection : During posterior fossa tumor resections, it's essential to protect delicate neural tissues from damage during surgical manipulation. Surgi-ORC® Fibril and SURGISPON® act as physical ba...
