Three easy steps to prepare Vivostat® Fibrin Sealant or Vivostat PRF®
1. Draw blood from the Patient
At the time of surgery or up to 24 hours before1, citrate (supplied with the kit) is added to the Preparation Unit. 120 ml of the patient's own blood is then drawn into the same unit.
2. Process the patient's blood
The Preparation Unit is placed in the Processor Unit. At the touch of a button the process starts; after approx. 25 minutes, an autologous fibrin or PRF® solution is ready for use. No thrombin or bovine components are added to the blood at any time.
3. Load the Applicator Unit and spray
The Fibrin or PRF® solution is easily loaded into the Applicator Unit and applied to the surgical site using one of the unique application devices (e.g. the Spraypen).
1This depends on the type of kit being used. Always consult the "Instructions for Use" supplied with the kit to determine the correct preparation.
