Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of on-label use of Surgiseal™ Tissue Adhesive, a cyanoacrylate-based Surgical Topical Skin Tissue Adhesive in wound closure of the topical skin in children presenting in the Emergency Department (ED).

Detailed description

Subjects had SurgiSeal™ applied to their topical skin incisions in the ED. Subjects' wounds were evaluated for bleeding and closure of the incision/wound before patient discharge and 48 hours after the procedure. Further follow up wound closure evaluations were conducted via telephone interview at 5-10 days and 14 days after the ED visit.
