The Suturion device aims to speed up abdominal wall closure and help surgeons follow the small bites technique (4:1 ratio)*.
Scientific evidence shows that the small bites technique in abdominal wall closure can reduce wound complications. The American and European Hernia Societies recommend this technique in their guidelines, but surgeons are yet to follow. Suturion aims to raise awareness around abdominal wall complications, such as incisional hernia and surgical site infections.
