This Novel Device Closes Wounds Easily
and Efficiently
When confronted with difficult wounds, reach for the
DermaClose continuous external tissue expander from Synovis
MCA, a subsidiary of Baxter International. It gently and rapidly
expands the skin on the subcutaneous planes around a wound.
Once set, DermaClose automatically maintains the proper
amount of tension. No need for readjusting or tightening. When
edges are brought close enough together—typically three to
seven days—perform final suturing and closure. For larger
wounds, just add more devices. Use DermaClose as an
effective alternative or adjunct to split thickness skin grafts and
negative pressure wound therapy.

This Solution Helps Fight SSIs
Fight SSIs with the Bactisure Wound Lavage from Zimmer
Biomet. This aqueous solution breaks down the biofilm that
some bacteria form as a protective layer, making the biofilm
easy to remove with pulsed lavage. Without their protective
layer, bacteria are more susceptible to antibiotics and the
immune system. For use with Zimmer Biomet Pulsavac Plus or
similar pulsed lavage system on all wound types. Available in
sterile 1000 mL polypropylene plastic bags with an integrated
single spike port and with Pulsavac Plus kits.
For more information, contact your local Zimmer Biomet
representative or visit www.zimmerbiomet.com/surgical
Faster Closure, Better Outcomes
Close skin wounds quickly and safely and achieve better
cosmesis with the noninvasive Zip skin closure device, for
incisions and lacerations available from Stryker. After applying
deep, tension-reducing suture layers, if necessary, use Zip
instead of sutures, staples, or glue.
