A Revolutionary Advance in Skin Closure Compared to Current Methods
“...significantly (p=0.009) lower incidence of infection [in contaminated wounds]...”
Comparison of gross and hystologic tissue response of skin incisions closed by use of absorbable subcuticular staples, cutaneous metal staples and polyglactin 910 suture in pigs
“...[INSORB] induced a less severe inflammatory response [with minimal scaring] in the early stages of healing...”
Orthopedics
A randomized prospective study of total hip wound closure with resorbable subcuticular staples
“... [INSORB] can provide comparable wound closure to stainless steel staples following total hip replacement and may do so with less local discomfort or erythematous reaction.”
Transplant
Renal transplant incision closures using new absorbable subcuticular staple device
“ ...[INSORB Staples] are secure and effective and are preferable to metal staple closures even in renal transplant recipients receiving steroids and sirolimus.”
Plastic Surgery
The Dermal Stapler Device: A faster more cost-effective method for Incisional closures as compared to Standard Dermal Surtures
