Intended Use
SURGISEAL 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, simple, thoroughly cleansed, trauma induced lacerations. SURGISEAL may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal sutures
Device Story
SURGISEAL Twist is a sterile, liquid topical skin adhesive containing 2-octyl cyanoacrylate and D&C Violet #2 colorant. Packaged in a single-use plastic ampoule within an applicator sleeve. Used by clinicians to hold closed skin edges of surgical incisions or trauma-induced lacerations. Upon application, the monomeric adhesive polymerizes in minutes to form a physical barrier to microbial penetration. The device is applied topically; it does not replace deep dermal sutures. The adhesive film provides wound approximation. Benefits include acting as a physical barrier while the film remains intact.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. In vitro studies demonstrated the adhesive acts as a physical barrier to microbial penetration while the film remains intact. No clinical studies were conducted to demonstrate microbial barrier properties or a correlation between these properties and a reduction in infection.
Technological Characteristics
Monomeric 2-octyl cyanoacrylate adhesive. Single-use tubular applicator with angled tip. Sterilization: Gamma irradiation (ISO 11137-2:2006) for filled ampoule; Ethylene oxide (ISO 11135-1:2008, ISO 11135-2:2008) for finished bulk applicator. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993.
Indications for Use
Indicated for topical closure of easily approximated skin edges of surgical incisions (including minimally invasive surgery punctures) and simple, thoroughly cleansed, trauma-induced lacerations. May be used with deep dermal sutures. 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.

| Device Description | SURGISEAL® Topical Skin Adhesive is a sterile, professional liquid<br>skin adhesive containing a monomeric (2-octyl cyanoacrylate)<br>formulation and the colorant D&C Violet #2. The SURGISEAL Twist<br>applicator contains the identical adhesive formula as the predicate<br>devices, SURGISEAL® Topical Skin Adhesive and SURGISEAL<br>StylusTM Topical Skin Adhesive, but is comprised of a plastic ampoule<br>container contained within an applicator sleeve with the applicator tip.<br>This Twist applicator tray is contained in an outer Tyvek pouch. When<br>SURGISEAL is applied to the skin with either Applicator, it<br>polymerizes in minutes.<br>In vitro studies have shown that SURGISEAL acts as a physical barrier |
| Indications for use | SURGISEAL is intended for topical applications only to hold closed easily approximated skin edges of wounds from surgical incisions, including punctures from minimally invasive surgery, simple, thoroughly cleansed, trauma induced lacerations.<br>SURGISEAL may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal sutures. to microbial penetration as long as the adhesive film remains intact. Clinical studies were not conducted to demonstrate microbial barrier properties and a correlation between microbial barrier properties and a reduction in infection have not been established. |
| Technological<br>Characteristics | The technological characteristics of each applicator design are geometrically unique but have similar capabilities for adhesive deployment and film coverage. The predicate Teardrop applicator shape is flat with a small specific depth incorporating a smooth, wide foam surface tip for larger area coverage; whereas, the subject Twist applicator shape is tubular with a smaller width angled tip for a more precision deployment with less peripheral coverage. Each has a unique distinctive design for releasing the identical SurgiSeal formula to the tip for patient skin contact.<br>SURGISEAL adhesive consists of a monomeric (2-octyl cyanoacrylate) liquid adhesive formulation packaged in a single-use applicator. The device is a low viscosity formulation to allow for varied layered applications of the adhesive to the intended area and allow for either a single consistent intact film thickness, continuous layer or two thin layers of the adhesive to the wound area.<br>SURGISEAL is used for topical applications only to hold closed, easily approximated skin edges of wounds while maintaining wound approximation.<br>In vitro studies have shown that SURGISEAL acts as a physical barrier to microbial penetration as long as the adhesive film remains intact. Clinical studies were not conducted to demonstrate microbial barrier properties and a correlation between microbial barrier properties and a reduction in infection have not been established. |
| Substantial<br>Equivalence | Biocompatibility:<br>Biocompatibility testing was previously conducted on the currently marketed device, SURGISEAL Twist (K130474), per the International Standard ISO-10993, “Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices, Part 1: Evaluation and Testing”. The existing testing is deemed supportive of the proposed labeled devices. Based on the results from those studies, both proposed labeled devices are considered to be non-toxic, |
| biocompatibility testing was necessary as the subject device is identical<br>to the device identified in K130474. | |
| Performance Testing: | |
| Bench tests in this submission include Film Thickness determinations<br>for each of the SURGISEAL Teardrop, Stylus and Twist applicators. | |
| Sterilization and Shelf-Life | |
| SURGISEAL Twist™ Topical Skin Adhesive is sterilized in<br>accordance with the order of operation of the assembly. The filled<br>ampoule containing the adhesive is sterilized by gamma irradiation in<br>accordance with ISO 11137-2:2006. Then the finished bulk applicator<br>in the secondary packaging is sterilized by ethylene oxide in accordance<br>with ISO 11135-1:2008 and ISO 11135-2:2008. | |
| The proposed labeling modification sterilization does not impact the 24<br>month (2 year) expiration date (shelf-life) proposed for these products<br>and will therefore remain to be labeled with a two (2) year expiration<br>date. | |

The labeling change clarifies the performance of the device in order to characterize the ease, safety, or effective use of the product. Based on extensive bench performance testing, the modified labeled device, SURGISEAL Twist Topical Skin Adhesive, has demonstrated to be safe & efficacious.
