Rapid Skin Closure Stapler for High-Volume Surgical Centers

The SubQ It! system deploys each bioabsorbable fastener in approximately 7 seconds, compared to roughly 42 seconds per manual suture stitch. This makes the SubQ It! stapler up to 7 times faster than conventional suturing, significantly reducing overall closure time and supporting higher surgical throughput in busy operating rooms.

No. The fasteners used in the SubQ It! system are made from a bioabsorbable polymer that is naturally absorbed by the body during the healing process. This eliminates the need for a follow-up removal appointment, reduces patient discomfort, and removes all associated costs of staple or suture removal from the care pathway.

The SU-10 comes preloaded with 10 bioabsorbable fasteners and is designed for closing incisions up to 10 cm in length, making it ideal for small and laparoscopic trocar incisions. The SU-25 contains 25 fasteners and handles incisions up to 25 cm, providing greater versatility for larger open surgical procedures such as abdominal and orthopedic surgeries.

No. The SubQ It! system uses two small needles to place fasteners subcutaneously, beneath the skin surface. The external skin is never pierced during the closure process. This subcuticular technique is a key reason the system produces superior cosmetic outcomes with minimal scarring compared to percutaneous metal staples or traditional sutures.

The SU-10 model is available in both the USA and globally through distribution partnerships. The SU-25 is currently listed for the USA market. Opus KSD actively supports distribution opportunities internationally, and the company holds a European Patent (EP 2,762,089) and Canadian Patent, indicating its readiness for global expansion.

SubQ It! reduces costs in several ways: shorter closure times lower OR utilization per case, bioabsorbable fasteners eliminate all expenses tied to staple removal appointments, and the reduced risk of scarring or wound complications decreases downstream care costs. The system is positioned as a cost-effective alternative to both traditional metal staplers and manual suturing.
