A band for surgical wound suture includes a first band having a first left band and a first right band and a second band located above the first band and having a second left band and a second right band, in which the first left band is connected to the second right band, and the second right band is connected to the first left band. The band for surgical wound suture provides advantages that an incision may be sutured by a simple operation of pulling the left and right bands to the left and right and attaching them, a feeling of heterogeneity after a suturing procedure may be minimized with a suturing device having a small volume and having almost no hard parts, and furthermore, the incision may be joined and firmly fixed by a wide and sturdy joint joined to both sides of the incision.

An apparatus for closing a surgical incision comprises left and right base panels, a plurality of closure components, and a plurality of left and right axial supports coupled to the respective base panels. The closure components couple the left and right base panels to each other laterally and have left and right ends coupled to the respective base panels. The closure components are positioned laterally across the left and right panels, the left axial supports are disposed between pairs of left closure component ends, the right axial supports are disposed between pairs of right closure component ends, and the left and right axial supports are offset from one another such that a serpentine arrangement of consecutive closure components and axial supports is formed. The apparatus can be made of antimicrobial materials or materials impregnated with antimicrobial agents. A flexible adhesive cover can be provided over the apparatus when in use.

A tissue bonding article includes a flexible material, an adhesive substance applied over at least a portion of a bottom side of the flexible material, and a polymerizable adhesive composition permeated throughout at least a portion of the flexible material.

Medical devices disclosed herein include pre-defined structures for dispensing forces onto a tissue plane in a living organism and are utilized to adjust spatial relationships, orientations, and mechanical forces in a patient treatment area. The treatment area may be a wound, an incision, or a surgically accessed area within a patient that includes oppositely disposed sections that heal more efficiently and with less scarring when force vectors of a particular magnitude and direction are applied to the treatment area. The medical device provides a structure that may be pre-stressed through planned deformation that develops desirable spatial and mechanical relationships along the tissue plane for alignment, compression, advancement, eversion, inversion, distraction, rotation, angulation, and the control or modulation of tension across the treatment area.

A wound closure system includes a device having a first main body and a second main body. Each of the first main body and the second main body has an adhesive backing. The first main body is coupled to the second main body by an adjustable connector. The adjustable connector is permitted to move in a single direction. In the event of an injury, the first and second main bodies are placed on opposite sides of a wound and are then pulled together, thereby sealing the wound.

A negative pressure drainage and cleaning system for sutureless closed skin incision. The system comprises: irrigation device, which comprises a delivery pump and a first catheter partially probing into inner cavity of a subcutaneous incision at a preset depth and is used for delivering irrigation solution; a negative pressure device, which comprises a negative pressure source and a second catheter partially probing into the inner cavity of a subcutaneous incision at a preset depth; a control device, electrically connected to the irrigation device and the negative pressure device. The system can assist to implement the sutureless closure of a full-thickness tissue above the deep fascia of the skin, avoids horizontal scars on the skin surface caused by suture compression/cutting, and leaves no suture knots in the superficial fascia, thereby eliminating an important factor which causes colonization of bacteria and a main cause of recurrence of wound infection.

The present invention discloses a wound closure device and a connecting unit, which belongs to the field of medical products, aiming at solving the problems of high cost, long period and difficult mass production of existing wound closure devices manufactured according to the shape and size of a wound. The connecting unit of the present invention is structured as an independent connecting unit which can be mass produced, when a wound with a specific shape and size is to be treated, a wound closure device structure suitable for the wound can be formed simply by selecting corresponding size and number of connecting units, and assembling the same correspondingly, therefore, the present invention can effectively reduce the production cost by means of mass production not depending on specific shape and size of a wound. In addition, a plurality of connecting units are connected correspondingly to form a structurally stable window, avoiding failure of the window caused by deformation when a wound is closed by a closure device.

A wound closure device comprises a backing comprising a width configured to extend along at least a portion of a wound from a first end to a second end and a length configured to extend transversely across the wound, an adhesive layer coupled to the backing, a first micro-structure array attached to the backing proximate the first end, the first micro-structure array configured to extend transversely across the wound, a second micro-structure array attached to the backing proximate the second end, the second micro-structure array configured to extend transversely across the wound, and an elongate wound closure space between the first and second micro-structure arrays.

A tissue retention system to assist in maintaining adipose tissue on a patient in a displaced position during a medical procedure to provide access to a body region of the patient includes an anchor pad having a pad length and a pad width. The anchor pad may include a pad body with an adhesive surface thereon, the adhesive being configured to adhere to a patient's skin. The anchor pad also may include an opposing first attachment surface facing away from the adhesive surface. The tissue retention system also may include a tension member having a second attachment surface.
