Anticoagulant therapy in patients undergoing hip or knee replacement may increase the incidence of complications associated with bleeding.

TRANSCOLLATION™ technology's ability to seal vessels, soft tissue and bone may allow surgeons to place patients on anticoagulant therapy with less risk of accelerated bleeding that can lead to anemia, wound swelling and additional pain.

Pain, swelling and postoperative anemia can postpone a patient's rehabilitation, leading to a slower recovery, decreased range of motion and a longer hospital stay.

Patients treated with TRANSCOLLATION™ technology can experience higher post-surgery hemoglobin retention with less pain and swelling at the wound site, which can speed rehabilitation and help patients feel better faster.

View References for Healthcare-associated Infection (HAI)

The presence of red blood cells in the form of a hematoma is an important risk factor in the development of surgical site infections (SSIs). Likewise, the immunosuppressive effects of donated blood expose patients receiving blood transfusions to a higher risk of developing a bacterial infection.

TRANSCOLLATION™ technology is an effective option for reducing the incidence of allogeneic blood transfusions and may also help reduce post-surgical hematoma formation.
