Synthetic Sealants Gain Share in Cardiovascular Procedures
Synthetic polyethylene glycol sealants have moved from niche adjunct products into mainstream specification for cardiovascular and vascular graft procedures, where surgeons value their transparent handling characteristics and freedom from animal-derived sourcing concerns entirely. Baxter's CoSeal and comparable products from Gatt Technologies have both reported expanded hospital formulary approvals in recent years, driven by cardiac surgery departments specifically seeking alternatives to fibrin-based sealants carrying blood-product-derived components with documented supply constraints. Clinical studies presented at major surgical society meetings have documented meaningfully faster hemostasis achievement time versus comparable biologic alternatives across several procedure types.
