Abstract: A method for preventing surgical adhesion between surfaces that are to be prevented uses a blood product having fibrin. The blood product can be a singled layered blood product having components from plasma, components added to initiate a coagulation process, and components created during the coagulation process. The products and methods can be used for preventing surgical adhesion, for stopping or reducing bleeding in an open surgical wound, and for treating surgical wounds.

Abstract: A container to be used for preparing a multi-layered blood product by centrifugation comprises a substantially cylindrical body (2) with a closed bottom (3) and a top (4) having a filling opening as well as a filter device (15), which is slidable inside the container (1). The filing opening is closed by means of a penetrable membrane (13), and the filter device (15) comprises a substantially planar mesh (16) and a supporting buoyancy body (18). In addition to this, there are means (35, 36, 39, 40, 42), for releasable fixation of the filter device (15) adjacent to the bottom (3) of the container (1).

Abstract: A method for stopping or reducing bleeding in open surgical wounds uses blood product that has a first layer, and a second layer. The first layer is adjacent to the second layer and defines a first outer surface of the blood product. The first layer is a majority leukocytes and the second layer is a majority thrombocytes.

Abstract: A method for treating surgical wounds uses a blood product having a first layer, and a second layer, the first layer being adjacent to the second layer, the first layer defining a first outer surface of the blood product, the first layer having a majority of leukocytes and the second layer having a majority of thrombocytes. The method improves the healing or the wound and reduces the formation of scars.
