Applications in Mass Casualty Disasters
-
The TopClosure® TRS is a novel concept in mass casualty treatment.
-
While in the past, complex wounds could not be primarily closed and were prone to further contamination and infection, with the TopClosure® TRS in hand, following basic cleansing of the wound, an adequate temporary, primary wound closure can be provided.
-
When the victim reaches the hospital, the TopClosure® TRS can be easily ‘zipped’-open for re-evaluation and definite treatment of the injury.
-
For the preparedness and response to emergencies and disasters, the TopClosure® TRS was designed to replace the conventional surgical stitching kits stocked in the emergency storage facilities.

-
This new device can be used in battalion First-Aid stations and field hospitals by surgeons, non-surgeon physicians and military medics.
-
TopClosure® TRS should be applied as a new methodology for the military Combat Casualty Care (CCC) protocol and be included in Combat Casualty Response Kits.
