NCT01902459

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical utility of EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch (Fibrin Pad) as an adjunct to hemostasis in soft tissue bleeding during intra-abdominal (stomach area), retroperitoneal (hip and stomach area), pelvic (hip area) and non-cardiac thoracic (chest area) surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Safety Parameter - Incidence of Thromboembolic Events

    Number of subjects experiencing a thromboembolic event as reported in the adverse events/serious adverse event safety set. the Safety set consists of all subjects on whom procedure is started.

    Surgery up until the 30 day follow-up

  • Safety Parameter - Incidence of Post-operative Bleeding Events Specifically Related to the Target Bleeding Site (TBS)

    Number of subjects experiencing a post-operative bleeding event specifically related to the target bleeding site (TBS) and as reported in the adverse events/serious adverse event safety set. Safety set consisting of all subjects on whom procedure is started.

    Surgery up until the 30 day follow-up

  • Safety Parameter - Incidence of Increase Blood Fibrinogen Level

    Number of subjects experiencing an increase in blood fibrinogen from the safety set consisting of all subjects on whom procedure is started.

    Surgery up until the 30 day follow-up

Other Outcomes (3)

  • This Product is Easy and Quick to Prepare for Application to the Target Bleeding Site.

    Intraoperative

  • This Product is Easy to Apply to a Variety of Bleeding Sites.

    Intraoperative

  • This Product is Easy to Cut to Size for Application on Various Sized Bleeding Sites e.g., a Customized Preparation.

    Intraoperative

Study Arms (2)

EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch consists of human fibrinogen and human thrombin embedded in a flexible composite patch component.

Biological: EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch

Standard of Care

OTHER

Standard of Care (SoC) is manual compression with or without a topical absorbable hemostat.

Other: Standard of Care

Interventions

EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch is a sterile, bio-absorbable combination product, comprised of two biological components (human plasma-derived fibrinogen and thrombin) embedded in a flexible composite patch component.

EVARREST™ Fibrin Sealant Patch

Standard of Care will be manual compression (MC) with or without a topical absorbable hemostat (TAH) or any other adjunctive hemostasis technique that is deemed by the surgeon to be his/her standard of care.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects ≥18 years of age, requiring an elective or urgent, open intra-abdominal, retroperitoneal, pelvic or non-cardiac thoracic surgical procedures;
  • Subjects or legally authorized representative must be willing to participate in the study and provide written informed consent.
  • Presence of an appropriate Target Bleeding Site as identified intra-operatively by the surgeon;

You may not qualify if:

  • Subjects with known intolerance to blood products or to one of the components of EVARREST™ or unwilling to receive blood products;
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or nursing.
  • TBS is from a large defect in an artery or vein where the injured vascular wall requires repair and maintenance of vessel patency or where there would be persistent exposure of EVARREST™ to blood flow and/or pressure during absorption of the product;
  • TBS with major arterial bleeding requiring suture or mechanical ligation;
  • TBS within a contaminated or infected area of the body;
  • Bleeding site is in, around, or in proximity to foramina in bone, or areas of bony confine;
  • Subjects with any intra-operative findings identified by the surgeon that may preclude conduct of the study procedure;
