Syneture™ Bone Wax

Syneture™ Bone Wax is an excellent hemostat with essential hemostatic characteristics for precise applications. Used to control bleeding in bones, it is frequently used by clinicians for hemostasis in sternotomy procedures.

 

• Bone Wax (2.5g) is available sterile in individual foil envelopes.

• Storage conditions are recommended as below 25°C (77° F), away from moisture and direct heat. Do not subject Bone Wax to excessive heat
• Open the envelope just prior to use to minimize the possibility of contamination and excessive drying.
• Use Bone Wax immediately after removal from the envelope.
• Using aseptic techniques, warm the Bone Wax to desired consistency by manipulation with the fingers or by immersion of the unopened foil packet in a warm sterile solution.
• Apply the softened Bone Wax to the bone edges as indicated by surgical circumstances and preference of the surgeon.
• Use Bone Wax sparingly and remove excess Bone Wax from the operative site.
• Do not use Bone Wax where rapid osseous regeneration and fusion are desired.
