Hemostasis: TISSEEL is a fibrin sealant indicated for use as an adjunct to hemostasis in surgeries involving cardiopulmonary bypass and treatment of blunt or penetrating splenic injuries when control of bleeding by conventional surgical techniques, including suture, ligature, and cautery, is ineffective or impractical. TISSEEL is a hemostatic agent that may be used in fully heparinized patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.
Sealing: TISSEEL is a fibrin sealant indicated as an adjunct to standard surgical techniques (such as suture and ligature) to prevent leakage from colonic anastomoses following the reversal of temporary colostomies.
