Prophylactic Suture Line Sealing With NE'X Glue R-eco in Cardiac and Vascular Surgery

"Suture line bleeding in cardiac and vascular reconstruction poses significant risks, including morbidity, mortality, and complications related to blood loss and transfusion. Advances in surgical techniques have improved hemostasis but may not suffice, especially in patients on anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications or those using synthetic graft materials.~Surgical adhesives are valuable adjuncts to standard hemostatic techniques, aiming to prevent postoperative bleeding and its associated complications. NE'X Glue R-eco, a novel surgical adhesive, utilizes recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA) and glutaraldehyde (GA) for suture line sealing. It is similar to BioGlue®, which uses bovine serum albumin (BSA) and GA, and has proven safety and benefits.~Distinguishing Features of NE'X Glue R-eco:~Composition: Uses rHSA expressed in plants, offering improved biocompatibility and reduced risk of allergic reactions.~Bonding Strength: Demonstrates high bonding strength in tests, comparab"
