<p>The disclosure is directed to a surgical bridge for supporting incision sutures under continuous tension. One form of the surgical bridge comprises an elongated member constructed to bridge the incision, and which is resiliently flexible under the influence of suture tension to compensate for swelling of the incision as it heals. In another form, the bridge includes slotted end guides which are respectively disposed under elevated suture support points, which structure precludes cutting or slicing of the patient's skin by the suture itself upon pressured lateral movement of the bridge over the skin surface.</p> |
