Advanced haemostatic gauze tailored for the battlefield.
The Prometheus ChitoGauze XR Pro heralds a new era in topical wound haemostatic agents. Unlike many conventional dressings, this product easily adapts to diverse wound contours, facilitating effortless wound packing and rapid bleed control. With its chitosan-impregnated design, ChitoGauze XR Pro promises limited particle shedding into wounds, setting it apart from other alternatives.
Chitosan, a natural and biocompatible polysaccharide, increases the gauze's haemostatic efficiency. This enhanced coating interacts optimally with blood to manage bleeding, whilst its unique blend with HemCon's proprietary manufacturing ensures blood movement deceleration through the dressing. It aids clotting at a localised level by binding red blood cells and platelets, acting independently from the traditional clotting cascade. This means that the Prometheus ChitoGauze XR Pro is a dressing that stands unparalleled in wound care and bleeding control.
