What to know before using HemaBlock Hemostatic Sterile Powder Stik, 2 gm tube
- Do not use open and unused HemaBlock containers in any sterile procedures.
- This product comes sterilized and may not be re-sterilized.
- Contact with any solution (including saline) before hemostasis is achieved will cause hemostatic potential loss.
- Only for use in dry form.
- Do not allow contact with the eye surface.
- Efficacy and safety for use in an ophthalmic procedure has not been demonstrated.
- Removing excess dry materials can reduce the potential of product interference with normal function, as well as reduction in the potential of compression necrosis in surrounding tissue as a result of swelling.
- This product swells to maximum volume immediately when it makes contact with blood and other types of fluid.
- HemaBlock is not meant to be a substitute for careful surgical techniques or proper ligature and conventional procedure application to achieve hemostasis.
- When hemostasis has been achieved, any excess powder must be flushed by irrigation from the site of the wound, especially when used near the optic nerve or spinal cord.
- Never place or inject HemaBlock into blood vessels. Embolization or death can occur.
- Keep away from animals and children.

Overview
Directions for Use: Inspect the integrity of the HemaBlock packaging prior to use. If damaged, do not use. For the foil sachet in the re-sealable tube, remove the tamper evident cap ring and open tube to drop sterile sachet contents on the OR tray to maintain the sterile field. For the Prefilled Syringe applicator, peel open chevron seal on pouch end and drop applicator on OR tray to maintain sterile field. For maximum benefit, the following technique is recommended: Remember the acronym of R. A. P. I. D. Hemostasis
Instructions for Use
1. Remove excess blood by blotting, wiping or suction. It is important to apply HemaBlock directly to the site of the active bleeding.
2. Apply a liberal amount of the powder as close to the source of the bleeding as possible and completely cover the wound. Deep wounds like biopsy sites may require equally deep application of the HemaBlock powder. To minimize possible occlusion of the applicator tip, pressure should be applied as the applicator exits the wound.
3. Steady Pressure needs to be applied over the powder covered tissue for 1 to 2 minutes - use of a non-adhering substrate to apply pressure may prevent adhesion of the formed clot to the surgical glove or other instrumentation. Amount and duration of pressure is wound dependent. For oozing, pressure may not be necessary. For more profuse bleeding wounds, steady pressure should be maintained longer. If bleeding continues, remove excess HemaBlock powder and reapply.
4. Irrigate wound area with saline and carefully clear away any material (excess powder, glove, sponge, pad, etc.) to visualize hemostasis. Excess HemaBlock powder not entrained in the clot matrix will swell upon contact. Once hemostasis is achieved the excess material should be removed by additional irrigation and aspiration.
5. Delivered hemostasis is evident after irrigation and the wound site is then ready for traditional closure methods.
