Lyostypt – Resorbable Collagen Membrane for Hemostasis
Lyostypt® from B. Braun is a resorbable collagen sheet that supports the body’s natural clotting processes. The sheet’s structure provides a large surface area, making it ideal for platelets to adhere to and promote clotting.
Benefits of Lyostypt®:
- Resorbs naturally within 3–4 weeks.
- Helps reduce blood loss and achieve hemostasis more quickly.
- Cost-effective to use, as only small amounts are needed due to the material’s high absorption capacity.
- Adheres easily to bleeding surfaces.
- Can be used as a carrier for medications, such as antibiotics or substances that stimulate coagulation.
Applications:
Lyostypt® can be used in various surgical procedures to manage:
- Capillary bleeding.
- Weeping or bleeding wounds.
- Local hemostasis, for example during hemodialysis.
