Frequently asked questions
Does this system provide reliable wound closure strength?
Yes. The DERMABOND PRINEO System is clinically engineered to provide tissue-holding strength equivalent to 3-0 MONOCRYL (poliglecaprone 25) sutures, ensuring dependable and secure wound approximation.
How does it protect against surgical site infections?
The system acts as a flexible microbial barrier. In vitro testing has demonstrated that it provides 99% protection for 72 hours against common organisms responsible for surgical site infections.
Is it effective against antibiotic-resistant bacteria?
Yes. The adhesive provides broad-spectrum inhibition against a variety of bacteria, including gram-positive strains like MRSA and MRSE, as well as gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli.
What is the primary adhesive used in the system?
The system utilizes a high-strength 2-octyl cyanoacrylate topical skin adhesive, which is designed for durability and optimal tissue bonding.
What components are included in the package?
Each unit includes the necessary components for a single application:
- 1 x Adhesive applicator (2.9 mL capacity)
- 1 x 22 cm self-adhesive polyester mesh patch
Does the mesh assist in holding the wound together?
Absolutely. The flexible polyester mesh tape is self-adhesive and works in tandem with the liquid monomer to provide superior approximation of the wound edges, replacing the need for traditional subcuticular sutures.
How long is the provided mesh patch?
The included self-adhesive polyester mesh strip measures 22 cm in length, suitable for various surgical incision sites.
Is this product suitable for replacing standard sutures?
Yes, it is designed specifically as an effective alternative to subcuticular sutures. By streamlining the closure process, it supports natural healing while providing a robust protective layer.
Is the applicator easy to handle during application?
Yes, the applicator is designed with professional medical utility in mind, featuring a slim, ergonomic grip that allows for precise control when applying the adhesive.
How does the system promote better healing outcomes?
By combining the strength of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate with a supportive polyester mesh, the system maintains wound edge approximation while protecting the site from external contaminants, creating an ideal environment for the natural healing process.
