HemaClear for bloodless surgical field during limb surgery

Equality considerations

NICE is committed to promoting equality of opportunity, eliminating unlawful discrimination and fostering good relations between people with particular protected characteristics and others.

The company indicates that HemaClear might have the greatest benefits in patients who are obese and are having knee surgery, children, and patients who are immune compromised (for example, those with HIV or diabetes mellitus, or those having chemotherapy). HemaClear can be used in all patients with a limb circumference less than 85 cm.
