APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR MINIMIZING WOUND DEHISCENCE, SCAR SPREAD, AND/OR THE LIKE |
| 摘要 |
This disclosure includes apparatuses for minimizing scar spread and reducing risk of wound dehiscence and related methods. Some of the apparatuses include a flexible first strip and a flexible second strip, the first and second strips configured to be coupled to a patient's back on opposing sides of a wound and a substantially inelastic and flexible layer of material configured to be directly coupled to the first and second strips with the layer in tension to resist separation of the first and second strips, where the layer is configured to be removably coupled to at least one of the first and second strips. In some of the apparatuses, the layer is configured to be removably coupled to each of the first and second strips. In some of the apparatuses, the layer is non-removably coupled to and/or is unitary with at least one of the first and second strips. |

1. An apparatus for minimizing scar spread and reducing risk of wound dehiscence, the apparatus comprising:
a flexible first strip; a flexible second strip, the first and second strips configured to be coupled to a patient's skin on opposing sides of a wound; and a substantially inelastic and flexible layer of material configured to be directly coupled to the first and second strips with the layer in tension to resist separation of the first and second strips; where the layer is configured to be removably coupled to at least one of the first and second strips. |
