*Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterococcus faecium

†Clinical significance unknown ‡In an ex-vivo study, more load in N was required to create a 3±1 mm gap between skin edges

approximated with DERMABOND PRINEO System, than with subcuticular 4-0 MONOCRYLTM Suture or PROXIMATE Ethicon Endo-Surgery skin staples (p=0.00).

For illlustrative purposes only

Powerful combination of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate (2-OCA) and self-adhering mesh

Protection• Provides a flexible microbial barrier with 99% protection in vitro for 72 hours against organisms

commonly responsible for SSIs.1*

– Demonstrates in vitro inhibition of gram-positive (MRSA and MRSE) and gram-negative bacteria (E. coli)2†

Strength• statistically significant greater skin holding strength than skin staples or subcuticular 4-0 MONOCRYLTM

(poliglecaprone 25) suture.4‡

• Redistributes tension away from the wound to the surrounding healthy surface area10

Patient Satisfaction• Patient may be able to shower immediately after the procedure, if directed by the healthcare

professional5

• At the time of removal, DERMABOND™ PRINEO™ System is associated with less pain than other wound closure devices6

• No post-surgical dressings may mean easier self-care and greater self-confidence for patients7

Dermabond™

Beyond sutures and staples lies a more innovative solutionDERMABOND™ PRINEO™ Skin Closure System (22 cm)

DERMABOND™ PRINEO™ Skin Closure System (22 cm) was shown to be*:• ~33% stronger when compared

to the average strength of staples3

• ~40% stronger when compared to the average strength of 4-0 suture3

Technology that provides greater strength and a more uniform distribution of tension than skin staples or suture10,*
