The Haemorrhage Occluder Pin (HOP) is designed to control severe presacral hemorrhage during pelvic surgery.
Serrated titanium pin for secure placement
The HOP is made of titanium, a biocompatible metal commonly used for internal implants.5 The shaft of the Haemorrhage Occluder Pin is serrated for more secure placement in the sacrum. Research has shown that significantly more force is required to extract a serrated pin than a smooth one.11
Malleable applicator for efficient placement
The Haemorrhage Occluder Pin comes preloaded in an easy-to-use applicator. The long, 12 inch shaft of the applicator is malleable and provides the surgeon with optimum visibility for precise pin placement at the bleeding site.
Now available in two sizes - 10mm and 14mm
