29 SURGICEL Essential Product Information INDICATIONS SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat (oxidized regenerated cellulose) is used adjunctively in surgical procedures to assist in the control of capillary, venous, and small arterial hemorrhage when ligation or other conventional methods of control are impractical or ineffective. SURGICEL ORIGINAL, SURGICEL FIBRILLAR and SURGICEL NU-KNIT Hemostats can be cut to size for use in endoscopic procedures. PRECAUTIONS Use only as much SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat as is necessary for hemostasis, holding it firmly in place until bleeding stops. Remove any excess before surgical closure in order to facilitate absorption and minimize the possibility of foreign body reaction. In urological procedures, minimal amounts of SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat should be used and care must be exercised to prevent plugging of the urethra, ureter, or a catheter by dislodged portions of the product. Since absorption of SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat could be prevented in chemically cauterized areas, its use should not be preceded by application of silver nitrate or any other escharotic chemicals. If SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat is used temporarily to line the cavity of large open wounds, it should be placed so as not to overlap the skin edges. It should also be removed from open wounds by forceps or by irrigation with sterile water or saline solution after bleeding has stopped. Precautions should be taken in otorhinolaryngologic surgery to assure that none of the material is aspirated by the patient. (Examples: controlling hemorrhage after tonsillectomy and controlling epistaxis.) Care should be taken not to apply SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat too tightly when it is used as a wrap during vascular surgery (see Adverse Reactions). ADVERSE EVENTS Encapsulation of fluid and foreign body reactions have been reported. There have been reports of stenotic effect when SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat has been applied as a wrap during vascular surgery. Paralysis and nerve damage have been reported when SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat was used around, in, or in proximity to foramina in bone, areas of bony confine, the spinal cord, and/or the optic nerve and chiasm. Blindness has been reported in connection with surgical repair of a lacerated left frontal lobe when SURGICEL Absorbable Hemostat was placed in the anterior cranial fossa. Possible prolongation of drainage in cholecystectomies and difficulty passing urine per urethra after prostatectomy have been reported.

30 SURGICEL Powder Absorbable Hemostat Essential Product Information Indications SURGICEL Powder (oxidized regenerated cellulose) is used adjunctively in surgical procedures to assist in the control of capillary, venous, and small arterial hemorrhage when ligation or other conventional methods of control are impractical or ineffective. Contraindications Do not inject or place SURGICEL Powder into an open blood vessel. SURGICEL Powder should not be used to control hemorrhage from large arteries. When SURGICEL Powder is used to help achieve hemostasis in, around, or in proximity to foramina in bone, areas of bony confine, the spinal cord, or the optic nerve and chiasm, it must always be removed after hemostasis is achieved since it will swell and could exert unwanted pressure. SURGICEL Powder should not be used for implantation in bone defects, such as fractures, since there is a possibility of interference with callus formation and a theoretical chance of cyst formation. Warnings Closing with SURGICEL Powder in a contaminated wound without drainage may lead to complications and should be avoided. SURGICEL Powder should not be impregnated with anti-infective agents or with other materials such as buffering or hemostatic substances. SURGICEL Powder is dry and there may be difficulties in precise delivery under certain circumstances. Unintentional device placement may result in powder scattering and device migration that may increase the risk of adhesion formation. Although SURGICEL Powder is bactericidal against a wide range of pathogenic microorganisms, it is not intended as a substitute for systemically administered therapeutic or prophylactic antimicrobial agents to control or to prevent postoperative infections. Do not attempt to trim the applicator tip. Precautions SURGICEL Powder should not be used in conjunction with autologous blood salvage circuits, because its fragments may pass through the transfusion filters of blood-scavenging systems. Use only as much SURGICEL Powder (oxidized regenerated cellulose) as is necessary and apply only where needed for hemostasis. Remove any excess before surgical closure in order to facilitate absorption and to minimize the possibility of foreign body reaction. In urological procedures, minimal amounts of SURGICEL Powder should be used and care must be exercised to prevent plugging of the urethra, ureter, or a catheter by dislodged portions of the product. Since absorption of SURGICEL Powder could be prevented in chemically cauterized areas, its use should not be preceded by application of silver nitrate or any other escharotic chemicals. If SURGICEL Powder is used temporarily to line the cavity of open wounds, it should be removed by irrigation with sterile water or saline solution after bleeding has stopped. Precautions should be taken in otorhinolaryngologic surgery to ensure that none of the material is aspirated by the patient (e.g., controlling hemorrhage after tonsillectomy and controlling epistaxis). This applicator tip is not intended for laparoscopic or other endoscopic use. Adverse Events Paralysis and nerve damage have been reported when other SURGICEL products were used around, in, or in proximity to foramina in bone, areas of bony confine, the spinal cord, and/or the optic nerve and chiasm. Blindness has been reported in connection with surgical repair of a lacerated left frontal lobe when other SURGICEL products were placed in the anterior cranial fossa (see WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS). Foreign body reactions have been reported with other products from the SURGICEL Family of Absorbable Hemostats. Burning has been reported when other SURGICEL products were applied after nasal polyp removal. Headache, burning, stinging, and sneezing in epistaxis and other rhinological procedures, and stinging when SURGICEL product was applied on surface wounds (varicose ulcerations, dermabrasions, and donor sites) have also been reported.
