What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HemoStypDevice

    During elective surgical procedure (non-laparoscopic thoracic, cardiac, abdominal, or vascular surgery) subject has mild to moderate soft tissue, vascular or parenchymal bleeding present at target bleeding site after primary standard conventional surgical hemostatic methods are proven to be ineffective or impractical will have Hemostyp applied in accordance to instructions for use.

  • SurgicelDevice

    During elective surgical procedure (non-laparoscopic thoracic, cardiac, abdominal, or vascular surgery) subject has mild to moderate soft tissue, vascular or parenchymal bleeding present at target bleeding site after primary standard conventional surgical hemostatic methods are proven to be ineffective or impractical will have Surgicel applied in accordance to instructions for use.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The Time to Hemostasis Measured From Start of Study Treatment to the Achievement of Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS), or to the End of the 10-minute Observation Period.

    The time to hemostasis was measured from start of study treatment to the achievement of hemostasis at the target bleeding site (TBS), or to the end of the 10-minute observation period. The time to hemostasis was considered as censored at the end of the 10-minute observation period. Time to hemostasis was quantified in minutes according to its nominal time point. When re-bleeding occurred, and the cessation of bleeding is again achieved at a later time point, the effective time to hemostasis was the latter time point. The time to hemostasis was the time from start of study treatment to that last effective hemostatic time point.

    Measured: 10 minutes

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Percentage of Subjects Achieving Hemostasis Between 2 Minutes and 10 Minutes

    Percentage of subjects achieving hemostasis at the target bleeding site at 2 minutes, 5 minutes and 10 minutes following the start of study treatment.

    Measured: Between 2 minutes and 10 minutes

  2. Rate of Subjects Achieving Intraoperative Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site

    Percentage of subjects with intraoperative hemostasis at the target bleeding site during the intraoperative period. The intraoperative period started when the first cut was made to the patient and ended when the operative field was closed and dressed.

    Measured: Intraoperative period

  3. Rate of Subjects With Intraoperative Re-bleeding From the Target Bleeding Site

    Percentage of subjects with intraoperative re-bleeding from the target bleeding site post hemostasis

    Measured: Intraoperative period post hemostasis

  4. Rate of Subjects Requiring Surgical Re-exploration up to 30 Days After Surgery for Re-bleeding From the Target Bleeding Site

    Postoperative re-bleeding from the target bleeding site requiring surgical re exploration up to 30 days after surgery.

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HemoStyp and Surgicel in people with Hemostasis and Bleeding, run by United Health Products, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Oct 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Time to Hemostasis Measured From Start of Study Treatment to the Achievement of Hemostasis at the Target Bleeding Site (TBS), or to the End of the 10-minute Observation Period. (time frame: 10 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2020.
