Executive Summary
Closure Medical has launched two delivery systems for its Dermabond topical skin adhesive that it claims substantially improves the product's ease of use. The ProPen and ProPen XL devices allow doctors to apply a high-viscosity formulation of Dermabond more precisely and control its flow better, says the Raleigh, North Carolina firm. ProPen is a single-use device with interchangeable tips, which allows for fine-line delivery of adhesive for those wound closures requiring precise application. The XL version differs in that it will deliver twice the express volume as the ProPen for closing long surgical incisions. All Dermabond products are distributed by Ethicon, a Johnson & Johnson company.
