CalgaeSeal is used to promote the rapid control of bleeding and provide hemostasis for lacerations, abrasions, vascular access sites and following surgical incisions. It can be used to achieve hemostasis at the skin surface for arterial/venous catheterization/tubes, needle puncture, hemodialysis and in patients on anticoagulation therapy. May be used in conjunction with a facility approved, post-hemostasis site dressing.

CalgaeSeal is calcium alginate packaged in a Tyvek and Mylar pouch and sterilized by gamma radiation to a 10°-6 SAL and used as a topical hemostasis pad. CalgaeSeal can be used alone as a wound dressing. It may be used in conjunction with manual pressure or FDA cleared mechanical pressure devices to provide rapid control of bleeding and hemostasis at the skin surface.
