Safety and Efficacy of Fibrin Sealant Grifols (FS Grifols) During Soft Tissue Open Surgeries

Summary

This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of fibrin sealant (FS) Grifols in patients undergoing elective (non-emergency) soft tissue open surgery where bleeding may be present. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that FS Grifols is not inferior to commercially-available oxidized cellulose pads (Surgicel®) in providing benefit in the time to hemostasis (i.e, the stoppage of bleeding). This study has a Preliminary Part (I) for study teams to become familiar with the application of FS Grifols and a Primary Part (II) to assess the safety and efficacy of FS Grifols. In both parts of the study, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either FS Grifols or Surgicel.
