Benefits of Glycine Infusion
Irrigant during prostate and bladder surgery
Continuous irrigation is commonly prescribed after certain prostate as well as bladder surgeries to help prevent the clot formation and retention that are frequently associated with these hemorrhagic (those involving bleeding) surgeries. It cleans the surgical area, provides visibility to the surgeon and removes minor clots that may cause blockages during or even after the surgery. This promotes healing and helps in carrying out the procedure smoothly.

How Glycine Infusion works
Glycine Infusion is a sterile, nonpyrogenic aqueous solution. It is a neutral and clear solution that helps to provide a high degree of visibility during urological (bladder, prostate, and urethra) surgeries and makes it easier for the surgeon to operate. Its action as a lavage (cleansing solution) helps to remove blood and tissue fragments from the surgical field. Post surgery it also prevents any blockage of the catheter.
