Intended Use
Barle Tissue Adhesive 2 topical skin adhesive is intended for topical applications only, to hold closed easily approximated skin edges of wounds from surgical incisions, including punctures from minimally invasive surgery and simple, thoroughly cleansed, trauma induced lacerations. Barle Tissue Adhesive 2 topical skin adhesive may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal stitches.
Device Story
Barle Tissue Adhesive 2 is a sterile, topical tissue adhesive containing 2-octyl cyanoacrylate; used for wound closure by holding approximated skin edges together. Device polymerizes within minutes upon application. Supplied in single-patient-use configuration; features modified applicator body design without actuation wings. Used in clinical settings for surgical incisions and trauma-induced lacerations. Provides a microbial barrier. Healthcare providers apply the adhesive topically to skin edges; acts as a wound closure agent to facilitate healing and protect the wound site.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data presented. Performance and safety profile established via extensive design verification, functional, and performance testing in accordance with the Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Tissue Adhesive for Topical Approximation of Skin (May 30, 2008).
Indicated for topical closure of easily approximated skin edges of surgical incisions (including minimally invasive surgery) and simple, cleansed, trauma-induced lacerations. May be used with deep dermal stitches. No specific age or gender restrictions noted.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A tissue adhesive for the topical approximation of skin is a device intended for topical closure of surgical incisions, including laparoscopic incisions, and simple traumatic lacerations that have easily approximated skin edges. Tissue adhesives for the topical approximation of skin may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal stitches.
