They are the antimicrobial option in 3M's Steri-Strip skin closure line: the adhesive carries an iodophor, and in vitro testing shows broad spectrum activity against the most common pathogens that cause surgical site infections. Each strip is a soft, breathable, nonwoven backing, which keeps the closure comfortable to wear. They are a low cost alternative to sutures and tissue adhesives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features and Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 in (12.7 mm) x 4 in (101.6 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSterile, single use, not made with natural rubber latex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides good adhesion to the skin and stays in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e3M Steri-Strip Antimicrobial Skin Closure Strips, 1\/2 in x 4 in Chart\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMPN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSold Unit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA1847\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2 in (12.7 mm) x 4 in (101.6 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnvelope of 6 strips or box of 50 envelopes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLimitations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese skin closures are not hypoallergenic. They are not recommended for patients with a known sensitivity to iodine. They are contraindicated on infected wounds, where adhesion cannot be obtained (exudate, skin oils, moisture, or hair), and for high-tension wounds that cannot be easily approximated. Apply them to clean, dry skin that is free of skin oils, without tension; excessive tension or postoperative edema can cause skin shearing, blistering, or loss of adhesion at either end of the strip, and removal may strip the skin. A small percentage of people may experience hypopigmentation or hyperpigmentation following removal, and occasional cases of mild acne and folliculitis have been observed in testing on healthy volunteers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere It Is Used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteri-Strip Antimicrobial Skin Closures are used where additional antimicrobial activity is desired and for wound support following early suture or staple removal.
