Can a new dissolvable dressing stop surgical bleeding faster?
NCT ID NCT07764055
First seen Aug 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing whether a new absorbable dressing made from oxidized cellulose can safely and effectively stop bleeding during surgery. The study will compare it to a standard hemostatic dressing in about 288 adults undergoing various surgical procedures. The main goal is to see if the new dressing stops bleeding within 5 minutes of application. Participants will be monitored for up to 6 months after surgery.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Absorbable multilayer fibrillar regenerated oxidized cellulose dressing
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer surgeons a new, effective option to control bleeding during operations, potentially improving safety and outcomes.
- What could go wrong
- This is a non-inferiority trial, so the new dressing may only be as good as, not better than, the existing one. Results are preliminary until the full trial is analyzed.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 years, any gender. * Patients scheduled for surgical procedures where adjunctive hemostasis is anticipated. * Patient and/or legal guardian has provided written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Participated in another clinical trial within 1 month prior to surgery. * Presence of acute infection. * Severe diseases of vital organs (heart, liver, kidney) or hematological diseases that would make the patient intolerant to surgery. * Known allergy to regenerated oxidized cellulose. * History of severe allergies or severe immunodeficiency. * Severe coagulation dysfunction (e.g., platelet count \< 50×10\^9/L, INR \> 2). * Life expectancy \< 6 months. * Pregnant or breastfeeding women. * Patients deemed non-compliant or unable to complete the study as judged by the investigator. * Unable to understand the study description provided by the investigator. * Any other condition deemed unsuitable for participation by the investigator (e.g., extensive trauma, extremely unstable vital signs, life-threatening massive bleeding).
