Hemospray to treat lower GI bleeds
|
Device: Hemospray
The Hemospray™ device comes in a 7F kit and a 10F kit. Each kit includes two 220 cm Teflon application catheters, a handle with CO2 cartridge and a syringe containing approximately 20 g of the Hemospray™ material. Hemospray™ is a proprietary inorganic mineral powder that acts as a mechanical barrier when sprayed over a bleeding lesion and the surrounding mucosa.
