Dukal - 5150 - Wound Closure Strip, Sterile
The Dukal Wound Closure Strip is a sterile, adhesive-backed medical strip designed to support wound closure and healing. Its thin non-woven reinforced fibers are arranged in a bilateral pattern for high tensile strength, ensuring secure wound approximation. These strips provide essential support after early suture or staple removal, helping to keep the wound closed without excessive tension, edema, or movement.
The translucent and porous design allows for breathability, promoting optimal healing conditions. Free from natural rubber latex, these strips are suitable for sensitive skin. They can be used alongside sutures or staples or as a standalone alternative for minor wound closures.
