Reinforced skin closure strips are medical devices used to close small wounds, cuts, and lacerations on the skin. These strips are made of thin and flexible material that is designed to adhere to the skin without causing any irritation. They are made of a porous, non-woven fabric that is coated with a medical-grade adhesive on one side. The other side of the strip is reinforced with filaments or fibres that add strength and durability to the strip.
Reinforced skin closure strips are a popular alternative to traditional sutures and staples, as they provide excellent wound closure without the need for anaesthesia, needles, or skin penetration. They are also less invasive than sutures or staples, which can cause additional tissue trauma and scarring. Moreover, these strips are easy to apply and remove, making them an ideal option for use in emergency rooms, clinics, and first aid kits.
The reinforced design of these strips makes them more resistant to tension and shearing forces, which means they can hold the edges of a wound together better than regular adhesive strips. This makes them particularly useful for closing wounds in areas that are subject to constant movement, such as the hands, feet, and joints. They are also ideal for closing wounds that are too small for sutures, or for patients who are allergic to surgical adhesive.
Reinforced skin closure strips come in various sizes and shapes to fit different wound sizes and locations. They are typically packaged in sterile, individually-sealed packets to ensure their safety and effectiveness. When applied correctly, these strips can provide fast and effective wound closure, and help prevent infection and scarring. They are a versatile and cost-effective solution for anyone in need of a quick and efficient way to close a wound.
