Abstract

Abstract A hemostatic collagen paste composition comprising a mixture, by weight of the total composition, of 2 to 30% of crosslinked collagen powder of 10 to 100 mesh particle size and 30 to 98% of water or an aqueous saline solution and hemostatic paste compositions that also comprise a hemostatic enhancing amount of thrombin, as well as methods of making and using such hemostatic collagen paste compositions.
