Silk Scaffold Surgical Incision Dressing

Interventional Study of the novel clinical application of SERI surgical silk scaffold affixed with dermaFLEX medical adhesive as a wound dressing, compared to two separate current standard of care for surgical incision closure devices: Prineo Dermabond and 3M Steri-Strip. Both components of the silk wound dressing prototype are FDA approved materials for other indications. This study seeks to gain insight of functionality of silk as a wound coverage material and determine variations of clinical outcomes in comparison to the synthetic mesh/cyanoacrylate device (Prineo Dermabond) and the nonwoven rayon/acrylate device (3M Steri-Strip) commonly implemented as a surgical wound dressing.
