LifeCoat

DESIGNED FOR MINIMAL MILD AND MODERATE SURGICAL BLEEDING

LifeCoat is a powdered version of Medcura’s hydrophobically modified chitosan, that is delivered by a bellows applicator during surgical procedures. Market-leading absorbable hemostatic powders are expensive and not meant to handle moderate surgical bleeding.


LifeCoat is under active development, and has yet to be evaluated by the FDA.
