Which product is categorized as Fabric?

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

Answer: (B)

Understanding product forms helps you choose the right hemostatic for a bleeding situation. Fabric refers to fabric-based hemostats, which are dry textile materials applied to a bleeding surface to provide a physical scaffold that supports clot formation. The product literally named Fabric fits this category exactly.

Powder is a dry particulate hemostatic agent that works by concentrating clotting factors on the surface. Flowable is a viscous liquid or gel that can be applied into a wound to fill spaces and promote hemostasis. Patch hemostat is a solid patch used to seal or cover a bleeding area, not a fabric-based material.
