New techniques for skin closure that minimize tissue inflammation and avoid foreign material may decrease morbidity following saphenous vein harvesting. The 3M Steri-Strip S surgical skin closure system is a new, noninvasive method of wound closure, which consists of polymeric components coated with a pressure-sensitive skin adhesive. This prospective, randomized study was undertaken to compare the results of the noninvasive skin closure method to the traditional subcuticular skin closure technique on saphenous vein harvest sites.
