Surgicel is categorized under which form factor?

• A. Patch Hemostat
• B. Flowable
• C. Fabric
• D. Powder

Answer: (C)

Form factor describes how a hemostatic agent is physically supplied. Surgicel is supplied as a fabric form, meaning it comes as a knitted or gauze-like sheet that can be laid into the surgical site and cut to size. This fabric provides a large contact area and flexibility to conform to irregular wound surfaces, giving it a matrix-like structure that supports clot formation. The other formats—flowable, powder, or patch—represent different delivery methods used by other products, but Surgicel’s typical presentation is the fabric form, making it the best choice here.
