The ZipĀ® Surgical Skin Closure device from ZipLine Medical, Inc.

The Zip device was designated Class I, 510(k) Exempt by the US FDA in 2010, and the CE Mark was affixed in 2014.\n\nLimited patient-reported satisfaction data exists for the Zip device as compared to staples and sutures, so this study will attempt to address this need.\n\nThe purpose of the study is to evaluate patient satisfaction of closure method used after knee joint arthroplasty. Metal staples and the ZipĀ® Surgical Skin Closure device are approved methods in regular use. Selection of method is generally based on physician preference.
