“…8 Gupta also showed staplers had benefit in terms of less time and expenses consumed. 9 One randomized control trial by Rousse compared staples to subcuticular sutures for cesarean sections abdominal skin closure in 101 women. 10 Significantly shorter operative time and less pain at 6 weeks was found with staples suture.…”

Background: Objective of the study was to compare tensile strength and time taken for wound closure using simple interrupted sutures, simple continuous sutures, and staples sutures. Methods: Swine skin tissue was cut into pieces of 2×6 cm and were divided into 3 groups according to skin closure technique: simple interrupted sutures (Nylon 5-0), simple continuous sutures (Nylon 5-0), and staples suture. All sutures, three equal knots in one piece, were performed by a single surgeon. Time taken for the approximation of each sample was recorded in second (S). Tensile strength was measured in newton unit (N) by pulling apart until suture separation using a tensiometer. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and subgroup analysis using Bonferroni correction was used to determine differences between groups. Results: Of 190 total pairs of skin tissue, the mean±SD times for skin approximation were 144.86±22.67 s for simple interrupted sutures, 96.19±17.64 s for simple continuous sutures, and 12.90±3.18 s for staples sutures (p<0.001). The corresponding mean±SD of maximum tensile strengths in each group were 29.04±10.72 N, 18.85±5.45 N, and 56.41±19.56 N, respectively (p<0.001). Conclusions: Our study showed that the use of staples for skin approximation took the least operative time and achieved the highest maximum tensile strength.

Injury is the leading health and readiness threat to the armed forces, with two million instances per year; therefore, innovating wound care solutions can help improve readiness. The DermaClip Skin Closure Device is a new, non-invasive, painless, and easy-to-apply wound closure device that does not require either needles or painful anesthesia injections or create additional damage to the wounded area. The efficacy of the device was tested in a 120-patient trial, composed of 60 experimental cases and 60 control cases. The trial of the DermaClip device demonstrated the device's efficacy in meeting the needs of clinical applications. Additionally, the experimental group had no adverse events in the product safety test. The efficacy of the device coupled with the features of ease of use and limited requirements for application make this a wound closure device particularly applicable to the emergency and battlefield setting.
