Project title: WOUND CLOSING SUTURE BANDS
Company name : *** WISEBANDS LTD.
TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD
Medical Instrumentation
KEY WORDS
Wound Closure, Surgery,
Skin Stretching
PROJECT SUMMARY
The R&D is focused on development of special wound closure suture
bands and tension device for closing large skin deficit open
wounds under tension, in order to accelerate the recovery of the
patient and avoid skin grafts.
Other projects intended for future development.
APPLICATIONS
The suture bands are intended for the stretch-closure of large
wounds deficient in skin.
ADVANTAGES
* Closing of wounds by skin stretching accelerates the healing of
skin deficit wounds.
* An alternative to skin grafts, closing of skin deficit wounds
under tension saves valuable surgery time and valuable
hospitalization time.
* The new suture bands are safe, sterile, convenient and simple
to use, effective and inexpensive.
* Short learning curve for surgeons ensures widespread use.
* There are no current alternatives of comparable performance,
cost and convenience.
MARKET
Hospitals and surgical clinics; emergency services (Red Cross),
military first aid, veterinary surgery and first aid.
