In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Vitagel for Arthritis. Completed, enrolled 109 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, single-center study to assess the effectiveness of Vitagel, a surgical hemostat, in primary unilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA). This will be an inter-patient controlled study involving one-hundred-ten subjects. Vitagel will be used in a randomly selected cohort of fifty-five patients undergoing primary unilateral THA procedures; a control group of fifty-five patients will not receive Vitagel or any other hemostatic agent except those that are standard during a primary THA. The study will evaluate the effectiveness of Vitagel in reducing intra- and post-operative bleeding.
