Preferred Label : NHS-POx-based Hemostatic Sealant Patch;
NCIt synonyms : GATT-Patch;
NCIt definition : A sterile resorbable hemostatic sealing patch composed of porcine gelatin fiber-based
carrier loaded with N-hydroxy-succinimide polyoxazoline (NHS-POx) polymer and nucleophilically
activated polyoxazoline (NU-POx) granulate, with potential hemostatic activity. Upon
application on the wound tissue, the coagulation cascade is started. A matrix of platelet
aggregation is formed, and a fibrin clot is formed in the gelatin fibers. This combines
with NHS-POx and NU-POx to form POx-hydrogel, which promotes hemostasis.;
