Wound Healing
Wound-healing agents include fibrin sealants, containing certain plasma-derived coagulation factors: fibrinogen and thrombin and the anti-fibrinolytic agent, aprotinin. Fibrin sealants are used to expedite wound healing and to seal cut tissues, control bleeding and permit uncomplicated healing during surgery.
They are used during a wide range of major surgical procedures, including cardiovascular, thoracic, vascular, neurological and abdominal surgery. Treatment of severe wounds requires cessation of bleeding, wound closure and, in some cases, replacement of blood or other fluids to restore normal blood circulation.
