Title : Fastening the future: Surgical zip ties for enhanced wound closure and patient well-being

Abstract:

Emerging as a revolutionary approach in wound closure, surgical zip tie skin closures present a promising avenue for advancing patient safety and surgical success. This review discusses how current research highlights the efficacy of zip tie closures in promoting wound healing, reducing the risk of dehiscence, and enhancing cosmetic outcomes across various surgical procedures. Future investigations should examine optimizing zip tie design and material properties to ensure compatibility with different skin types and surgical sites, as well as exploring their potential applications in minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgeries. Collaborative efforts between surgeons, engineers, and biomaterial scientists are essential for refining zip tie closure systems, conducting rigorous clinical trials, and establishing standardized protocols for their integration into routine surgical practice, ultimately revolutionizing wound management and improving patient outcomes.
