Abstract
The topical hemostatic agent used in the FloSeal group is effective in terminating intraoperative bleeding as an adjunct to traditional surgical methods for stopping bleeding. Its judicious use is associated with lesser need for transfusion of blood products and rate of revision for bleeding. Its cost-utility profile should be addressed in dedicated trials.
