1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract

Purpose: Uncontrolled bleeding remains a major surgical challenge, increasing morbidity, operative time, and costs, highlighting the need for effective adjunctive hemostats. Veriset is a synthetic, absorbable patch that promotes clotting and provides mechanical hemostasis. While early studies show efficacy, real-world evidence across diverse settings is needed. This post-market, multicenter study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of Veriset in various surgical procedures. Methods: This observational, single-arm, prospective study was nested within Medtronic's product surveillance registry. Sites were selected for procedural diversity (cardiovascular, soft-tissue, solid-organ), high Veriset use, and clinical study experience. Patients treated with Veriset as part of usual care were followed for 30 days post-procedure to monitor adverse events (AEs). The primary safety and effectiveness endpoints were device-related AEs within 30 days and hemostasis within 5 minutes, respectively. Secondary outcomes included time to hemostasis, length of hospital stay, and bleeding-site severity. Results were summarized using descriptive statistics and exact (Clopper-Pearson) confidence intervals. Results: Veriset was used on-label in 100 patients in cardiovascular (56), soft-tissue (18), solid-organ (18), and other (8) procedures. Most were performed via open surgery (90.0%), with 34% involving anastomoses. Median blood loss was 600 mL (interquartile range 200-1500), with transfusions in 24 patients. Of the 120 bleeding sites treated, pre-Veriset methods included sutures (55.8%, 67/120) and pressure (29.2%, 35/120). Bleeding was mostly mild/moderate (82.5%, 99/120). Device-related AEs occurred in 1 patient, with no deaths. Hemostasis within 5 minutes was achieved at 91.7% (110/120) of sites and in 96.0% (96/100) of patients. Median time to hemostasis was 2.0 minutes; median hospital stay was 7 days. Conclusion: This study provides real-world evidence that Veriset is safe and suggests that it may be an efficacious and rapid adjunct for surgical hemostasis, including in high-risk cardiovascular and solid-organ procedures, supporting and extending prior trial data for routine clinical use.
