NCT01500135
Brief Summary:
Present trial is the third study that in combination with two completed studies (one being a trial in hepatic resection surgery also comparing TachoSil® and Surgicel® Original) targeted toward providing clinical safety and efficacy data to support extending the current label of TachoSil® to a general hemostasis indication across several surgical procedures and organ systems in the USA.
Detailed Description:
The drug being tested in this study is called TachoSil®. TachoSil® was used to treat people undergoing scheduled subacute vascular surgery. This study looked at how well TachoSil® patches stopped bleeding at the surgical site compared to Surgicel® Original patches.
The study enrolled 150 patients. Participants were randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the two open label treatment groups in a 2:1 ratio:
* TachoSil®
* Surgicel® Original
This multi-center trial was conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study was approximately 6 months. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic, including safety follow-up visits at 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery.
