Description
Nexcare Steri-Strip Skin Closure Adhesive Strips provide professional-grade wound closure without the need for sutures or staples. These 1/4 inch x 4 inch strips are designed to hold wound edges together securely, promoting optimal healing conditions while minimizing scarring. Each package contains 30 sterile strips, making them ideal for medical facilities, emergency kits, and home first aid use. The strong adhesive system maintains holding power for up to 14 days, gradually releasing as the wound heals. These strips are particularly effective for clean, straight cuts and post-surgical incision support. The breathable material allows air circulation while the waterproof design permits normal bathing and activities. Nexcare's medical expertise ensures these strips meet hospital standards for wound closure applications. The narrow width provides precise wound edge approximation while the 4-inch length accommodates various wound sizes. Healthcare professionals prefer Steri-Strips for their ease of application, reduced infection risk compared to sutures, and excellent cosmetic outcomes. These strips are essential components of professional wound care protocols and advanced first aid treatment.
Suggested Use
Clean wound thoroughly and ensure complete hemostasis. Pat area dry and remove any debris. Apply strips perpendicular to wound, starting from center and working outward. Space strips 2-3mm apart for optimal closure. Press firmly for 30 seconds. Trim excess length if necessary. Leave in place until strips begin lifting naturally.
