It is designed for use in a variety of surgical procedures, providing a flexible and effective alternative to traditional methods such as sutures or staples.
The Ethicon Dermabond Prineo Skin Closure System is an advanced wound closure solution that combines the benefits of a topical skin adhesive with a self-adhering mesh to provide secure, durable, and cosmetically appealing skin closure.
Combining Two Technologies: The Dermabond Prineo system merges two proven technologies—Dermabond Advanced topical skin adhesive and a self-adhering mesh patch. The adhesive forms a strong, protective barrier over the incision, while the mesh supports wound edges, promoting even tension distribution across the closure site. Together, they provide a reliable and flexible skin closure that adapts to the body’s movements.
Enhanced Cosmetic Outcomes: This system is designed to deliver superior cosmetic results. The Dermabond adhesive creates a smooth, transparent layer that helps reduce scarring compared to traditional sutures or staples. The consistent wound tension provided by the mesh reduces the risk of wound separation, promoting uniform healing and a better aesthetic outcome.
Simplified Wound Management: The Dermabond Prineo system offers an easy-to-apply and easy-to-remove solution for wound closure. Once applied, it requires minimal maintenance and is typically left in place until the wound has sufficiently healed. This can enhance patient comfort and convenience, as no follow-up visit is needed for removal like with traditional stitches.
Infection Prevention and Protection: The skin adhesive provides an antimicrobial barrier that helps protect against common infection-causing organisms, including Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA. The barrier also seals out dirt and debris, further reducing the risk of post-operative infections.
Flexible and Durable Closure: The combination of mesh and adhesive creates a strong, flexible closure that withstands daily activities and natural body movements. This is particularly beneficial in procedures where tension or motion could compromise wound integrity, such as joint surgeries or abdominal incisions.
Broad Surgical Applications: The Dermabond Prineo Skin Closure System is suitable for use in a wide range of surgical procedures, including general surgery, orthopedic surgery, plastic surgery, and obstetrics. It is particularly useful in procedures requiring longer or more complex incisions where cosmetic outcomes are a priority.
Patient Comfort and Satisfaction: Patients benefit from the system’s non-invasive nature and its comfortable, breathable design. The transparent adhesive allows for continuous visual monitoring of the wound without needing to remove the closure. Moreover, since the system eliminates the need for suture or staple removal, patients experience less pain and anxiety post-operatively.
