    Study Notes

    Study Design

    • This was a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial comparing a collagen-based hemostatic powder (CP) to a hemostatic matrix (HM)
    • The study was conducted in accordance with good clinical practice (GCP) and registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT #03725098).

    Study Participants

    • Subjects were enrolled in the study if they were undergoing a non-emergent cardiothoracic operation, agreed to participate, and had a target bleeding site (TBS) for which conventional hemostatic methods were ineffective.
    • Subjects were excluded if they had an active or suspected infection at the surgical site.
    • Subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive either CP or HM.

    Study Endpoints

    • The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of subjects achieving hemostasis at 3 minutes.
    • The secondary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of subjects achieving hemostasis at 5 minutes.
    • Additionally, the study assessed exploratory outcomes including:
      • Satisfaction with product use
      • Time taken to prepare the hemostatic device
      • Rebleeding of the TBS
      • Device-related adverse events

    Study Results

    • CP significantly improved the primary endpoint hemostasis at 3 minutes compared to HM (64.2% vs 9.6%, P<.001).
    • CP was also non-inferior to HM for hemostasis at 5 minutes (92.5% vs 44.2%, P <.001).
    • No rebleeding events were observed in the CP group.
    • The mean satisfaction rating for CP was 4.8 ± 0.6 compared to 3.5 ± 1.5 for HM (P<.001).
    • CP preparation time was significantly shorter than HM (19.5 ± 9.8 seconds vs 2 minutes and 26.4 ± 52.3 seconds, P<.001).
    • No device-related adverse events were reported in either group.

    Conclusions

    • CP was superior to HM in achieving hemostasis within 3 minutes and was non-inferior to HM for hemostasis within 5 minutes.
    • CP was also associated with higher user satisfaction and shorter preparation time compared to HM.
    • CP demonstrated a safe hemostatic profile in this study.
