The arcuate skin staple: its influence on pain of staple penetration and removal
Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to measure the degree of pain elicited by either staple implantation and by removal in human subjects. Included in the study were conventional rectangular staples and the new arcuate staples. The pain associated with staple implantation was significantly greater than that associated with staple removal. The configuration of the staple did not influence the magnitude of pain associated with either staple implantation or staple removal.

Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen and...
