The Optimal Haemostatic Patch for Post Renal Dialysis

Patent No. US 10,124,084 B2
patent batch
velseal-T Disc
  • Overview

    Velseal™-Patch is an optimal haemostatic dressing to control bleeding Post-Renal Dialysis. The ready to use dressing consists of a polymeric haemostatic pad on non-woven fabric coated with adhesive. The novel haemostatic patch is impregnated with clot promoting and clot stabilizing agents. When applied, the Velseal™-Patch fastens the blood clotting process reducing the time required for clot formation. It thereby prevents the excessive bleeding post renal dialysis.

  • Properties
    • A novel haemostatic dressing that aids in blood clotting at the dialysis puncture site.
    • Highly porous and absorbs fluid 12-15 times of its weight.
    • Prevents the loss of natural clotting factors to initiate the clotting cascade.
    • Adhesive is non-irritant and gentle to the skin.
    • Biocompatible dressing.
    • No secondary dressing is required.
    • Even effective in patients with high blood pressure and/or are on anti-coagulants.
    • Used for haemodialysis patients.
  • Action
    • The interconnected small voids of porous PEC sponge provide a very large surface area for the flowing blood and prevent the loss of natural clotting factors to initiate the clotting cascade
    • The pad expands on contact with blood to 12-15 times its original size
    • The blood clotting process occurs within the voids which then travels towards the puncture site
    • Further, the presence of impregnated naturally derived clotting factors & stabilizer intensifies the clotting action. The clot stabilizing agent prevents the disintegration of clot formed
    • Natural blood clotting continues to the injured blood vessel without affecting flow characteristics of circulating blood
