tissue adhesives

Tissue adhesives are medical glues used to close wounds or cuts, providing an alternative to stitches or staples. They are made from specialized compounds that bond the edges of a wound together when applied. These adhesives form a protective barrier that helps keep the wound clean, promotes healing, and reduces infection risk. Tissue adhesives are typically quick to use, easy to apply, and suitable for certain types of wounds, especially those on the skin's surface. They are commonly used in emergency rooms and outpatient settings to provide effective, minimally invasive wound closure.
