DISPOSIBLE SKIN STAPLER
A surgical skin stapler is a sterile, disposable medical device used to close skin wounds or surgical incisions. Instead of sutures, it uses metal staples to approximate the edges of a wound, enabling quicker closure.
Model: RYPF-35W
Features:
- Disposable: Typically single-use to ensure sterility and avoid cross-contamination.
- Preloaded Staples: The model in the image is marked "35W," meaning it is preloaded with 35 wide staples.
- Ergonomic Design: Designed to be lightweight and easy to handle for rapid application.
- Clear Housing: Allows the user to see the remaining staples.
Uses:
- Surgical Incisions: Common in surgeries like abdominal, orthopedic, and thoracic procedures.
- Emergency Wound Closure: Useful in trauma settings for fast wound closure.
- Skin Closure Only: Not used for internal tissues.
Advantages:
- Speed: Much faster than traditional suturing.
- Consistency: Staples are evenly spaced and uniform.
- Lower Infection Risk: Compared to sutures in some cases, especially when left in place for a short time.
How to use:
- The skin edges are aligned.
- The stapler is positioned over the wound.
- When the handle is squeezed, a staple is ejected and bends into a shape that holds the skin edges together.
- The device is then moved along the incision to place additional staples.
