Brief Summary

A prospective, multi-center, multi-national single arm study to evaluate the performance and safety of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows in laparoscopic abdominal, gynecological, and urological surgery.

Conditions

Hemostasis

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Achievement of Hemostasis

  The proportion of subjects for which hemostasis was achieved after application of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows.

  Intraoperatively, expected within 3-10 minutes of application

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Re-bleeding at Target Bleeding Site

  Intraoperative, prior to surgical closure of the subject

• Re-operation due to bleeding

  Post-operatively, expected within 1-30 days of the surgical procedure

Interventions

HEMOBLAST™ Bellows DEVICE

Surgeon has chosen to use HEMOBLAST™ Bellows as an adjunct to hemostasis when control of minimal, mild, or moderate bleeding by conventional procedures is ineffective or impractical in laparoscopic abdominal, gynecological, or urological surgeries.
