Gastrointestinal problems account for 35% of the annual 176 million ambulatory visits with total costs approximately $1.7 billion in the past year. Currently, surgeries involving the small bowel require sutures, which lead to complications such as infection, cuts, leakage, tearing, and even bursting. We propose to reduce these complications and financial burden to $1.2 billion by using a newly designed Bioadhesive Bandage and Tissue Support to eliminate the need for sutures.
