The INSORB® Absorbable Skin Stapler represents a revolutionary new skin closure modality designed to combine the cosmetic result of absorbable suture with the rapid closure times associated with metal skin staplers, while eliminating the need for metal staple removal post-operatively. The INSORB® Absorbable Staple is comprised of a co-polymer of polylactic acid and polyglycolic acid,(PLA/PGA) which is absorbed over a period of 4-6 weeks.
Insorb replicates the familiar technique and method surgeons use to close incisions with metal skin staples.
Enables clinicians to time-effectively place an interrupted “stitch”… an absorbable staple that eliminates the need for removal post-operatively. Provides a uniform, symmetrical, everted closure. Eliminates the percutaneous insult to the epidermis resulting from the use of metal skin staples.
Virtually eliminates the potential of needlesticks.
Insorb is a sterile, single patient use device that deploys 30 absorbable staples, sufficient to close up to a 30-35cm incision.
The patented INSORB Skin Stapler places proprietary subcuticular absorbable staples to close surgical incisions in 2 Easy Steps
