Ostene ® Soluble Bone Hemostasis Implant
Material (K070093) | ## Description of the device: Ostene is an odorless, opaque wax-like material designed to be utilized directly out of the package. It is best used immediately following removal from the package, and can be softened and increased in stickiness by warming and by additional handling and manipulation, if so desired. Ostene is comprised of a sterile mixture of water-soluble alkylene oxide copolymers. derived from ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. Ostene contains no other additives or colorants. The wax-like material is formed into sticks of various weights ranging from .5 to 5 grams each. As a bone hemostasis agent, Ostene stops bone bleeding by the creation of a physical barrier along the edges of bones that have been damaged by trauma or cut during a surgical procedure. Ostene, when placed on bone under moderate pressure, plugs the vascular openings in the bone. This plug prevents further bleeding. Ostene is provided sterile by irradiation and must not be resterilized. {1}------------------------------------------------ K082491 Page2/2 #### Ceremed, Inc.
