1. APPLICATION AND REMOVAL TIME
Today, demand for surgeons’ time remains a big challenge, and wasted time is leading to physician burnout. Stapling can usually be performed quicker than suturing, saving about 2-3 minutes of time, which is why stapling is the preferred method of choice for trauma care involving mass casualties, whether it’s a natural disaster, major vehicular accident, or even a shooting.
2. SCARRING
Just as with sutures, staples can cause scarring. Because staples do not allow for precise wound alignment, healthcare professionals should not use staples on the face or neck (and discomfort makes them a poor choice for usage in the hands or feet). In patients who easily scar, staples could make their scar more pronounced, especially if the staples are left in for any stretch of time (>5 to 15 days, depending upon the location).
