Abstract

A method of preparing autologous plasma fibrin perioperatively to induce local hemostasis is disclosed. The autologous plasma fibrin is thereafter simultaneously expelled onto a treatment site along with a physiologically acceptable thrombin solution to effect hemostasis at the site. An apparatus for simultaneously expelling the contents of vessels which separately contain the autologous plasma fibrin and thrombin solutions, respectively, is also disclosed. A kit for obtaining a sample of blood, extracting plasma fibrin therefrom, as well as all necessary syringes, needles, reagents, and the inventive apparatus is also disclosed.
