Reabsorbed in 28 days

Longer lasting and more evenly distributed gentamicin concentrations

Septocoll E must be used in patients known hypersensitivity to collagen and/or gentamicin

Septocoll E should be used in conjunction with other methods of hemostatasis at bleeding
sites requiring longer ligation or at larger arterial and/or bleeding requiring suturing.

There is a lack of clinical experience regarding the safety of use in pregnant women, nursing
mothers and children.

Instructions for use-

Before implantation all infected and necrotic tissue must be surgically removed.

Septocoll E fleece should not be moistened before being inserted into wound cavity,
as this would reduce its hemostatic efect.

The use of an overflow drain is indicated in many cases to allow the wound seretion to drain off. Irrigation /suction drainage , however causes  too rapid elimination of the gentamicin and should therefore not be used in conjunction with gentamicin crobefate content.

Indication-

Antibiotic protection with impregnated Gentamicin Collagen  fleece

Used for-
potentially contaminated wounds
contaminated wounds
revision operations in septic surgery

Dosage-

As per directions given-

Septocoll E 20  -   size  1 : 5 * 4 cm

1 fleece -   
 80mg  collagen( equine )
 29mg   gentamicin sulfate  equivalent to 17.5mg gentamicin
  87mg gentamicin crobefate equivalent to 17.5 mg mg gentamicin

Septocoll E 40 -   size 2 : 5 * 8 cm

1 fleece -
160mg  collagen( equine )
 58mg   gentamicin sulfate  equivalent to 35mg gentamicin
 175mg gentamicin crobefate equivalent to 35mg mg gentamicin

Septocoll E 80 -  size  3: 10 * 8 cm

1 fleece -
320mg  collagen( equine )
 116mg   gentamicin sulfate  equivalent to 35mg gentamicin
 350mg gentamicin crobefate equivalent to 35mg mg gentamicin

Septocoll E is impregnated with Gentamicin to give antibiotic protection. It can therfore be
applied anywhere where reliable protection against infection is required

Biological absorption of Septocoll E is complete after around four weeks.
Additional surgery to to remove the haemostatic material is not necessary.
The patients mobility and sense of well-being can therefore be restored quickly and
cost- effectively
It can be applied anywhere where relaible protection against secondary infection is
required. 

Reabsorption-

Complete reabsorption of the collagen fleece takes place within around 4 weeks depending
on blood circulation by way of phygocytes and enzymatic degradation.
Notable properties in this connection are high biocaompatibility and low immunogenicity,
as well as good controllability of reabsorption via cross-linking agents

The collagen used is very well tolerated and supports the patients convelescence
through significantly shorter wound healing times.

There is a lack of clinical experience regarding the safety of use in pregnant women, nursing
mothers and children.
