AnsCare ChitoClot Pad exerts a profoundly hemostatic activity in clinical use. The application of AnsCare ChitoClot Pad in interventions such as angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can significantly shorten hemostasis and restraint time, thus reduce the risk of complications. ChitoClot Pad is very different from other commercial products. It possesses the feature of gelation after absorbing blood and provides the ability of preventing exudation of absorbed blood.
Blood Coagulation Mechanism of ChitoClot Pad
AnsCare ChitoClot Pad is composed of medical grade chitosan, which provide excellent hemostatic efficancy. Cationic chitosan (chitosan; -NH3+) enhances the platelet aggergation to accelerate blood coagulation. That activates coagulation molecules, thrombin, serotonin, ADP, TxA2, and induces aggregation of fibrin and blood clot.
