The COR adheres easily to bleeding surfaces, forming a temporary seal that occludes the bleeding vessel.
The COR can absorb blood between seven and ten times its weight, which results in the formation of a gelatinous mass that provides a matrix for platelet aggregation and coagulation pathways activation.
The COR is presented in three forms: compacted tissue sponge, fibrillar tissue mesh, and powder.
