INSTRUCTION FOR USE OF MEDICAL DEVICE

REVUL^® hemostatic dressing

Description
Revul^® hemostatic dressing is a highly effective blood stopping agent, made from natural substance chitosan, intended for arrest of different types of bleeding. Revul^® hemostatic dressing will exert claimed effect regardless of the blood clotting processes in the body. The hemostatic effect is contingent on binding of positively charged elements of Revul^® hemostatic dressing with negatively charged erythrocytes. Upon contact with blood, Revul^® hemostatic dressing promotes absorption of blood liquid fraction and forms a unified gel-jelly mass, which facilitates stoppage of bleeding.
