Indications for Use

The Zip 4 Skin Closure Device is indicated for skin closure of minor lacerations. The Zip 4 Skin Closure Device may be sold direct to consumers (OTC).

Device Story

Zip 4 Skin Closure Device is a single-use, non-invasive, tape-based wound closure device for minor lacerations up to 4 cm. Device consists of two pressure-sensitive adhesive patches connected by an adjustable ratcheting mechanism. Applied to clean, dry skin; wound closed by compressing skin edges and tightening the latching member. Remains on skin during healing; removed by peeling. Used in clinical or home settings (OTC); operated by clinicians or patients. Provides mechanical tension to hold skin edges together without piercing tissue. Benefits include non-invasive wound approximation, reducing need for sutures or staples in minor wounds.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical testing was performed. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including dimensional and mechanical tests, simulated use, human wear testing, biocompatibility, sterility, and packaging/shelf-life validation.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Biocompatible polyurethane strips, pressure-sensitive adhesive, polymer straps with ratcheting locks. Principle: Tape-based mechanical tension. Form factor: Single-use adhesive patch with adjustable closing mechanism. Sterilization: Electron-beam radiation. Standards: ISO 10993-1:2009, ISO 11137-2:2013, ASTM D 4169-14, ASTM F 2096-11, IEC/EN 62366:2014.

Indications for Use

Indicated for skin closure of minor lacerations in patients requiring non-invasive wound closure.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

The Zip 4 Skin Closure Device may be sold<br>direct to consumers (OTC). | {4}------------------------------------------------ Device Technological Characteristics and Comparison to Predicate Device The Zip 4 device is made of two pressure-sensitive adhesive patches comprising the Adhesive Base, which are connected to each other by an Adjustable Closing Mechanism. The wound is closed by compressing the skin together with fingers and then pulling the adjustable latching member tight. The 3M™ Steri-Strip™ is made of porous non-woven material reinforced with filaments for strength. The wound is closed by compressing skin with fingers or forceps and placing the strips across the wound. Steri-Strips are provided sterile in individual packs. Multiple strips can be placed next to each other, 3mm apart, to close larger wounds. Both the Steri-Strip and Zip 4 devices are tape-based wound closure devices that do not pierce the skin but hold the skin together using tension across the wound.
