Abstract
A sealant delivery device includes a housing, a matrix container connected with a distal end of the housing and being moveable between closed and opened positions, and a matrix, such as a hemostatic substrate, disposed within the matrix container. The sealant delivery device includes a sealant dispensing system in fluid communication with the matrix container that is configured for dispensing a sealant onto the matrix disposed within the matrix container. An actuator is coupled with the sealant dispensing system and the matrix container. The actuator is engageable for opening the matrix container for exposing the matrix and expressing the sealant onto the matrix. A component of the matrix container may be used to press the matrix and sealant expressed onto the matrix against target tissue to control bleeding of the target tissue.
