Can a Glue-Like device mend severed nerves without stitches?

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Subjects aged 18 years or older at the time of signing the informed consent form. 2. Subjects undergoing surgical repair of an acute peripheral nerve injury as follows: 1. Digital sensory nerve with associated tendon injury, OR 2. Digital sensory nerve without tendon injury. 3. Nerve must be completely transected and appropriate for primary repair. 4. Nerve ends can be reapproximated without excessive tension and without the need for nerve grafting. 5. Wound can be adequately cleaned and has sufficient healthy soft tissue to allow primary closure without adjunctive soft tissue procedures. 6. Nerve injury is deemed by the surgeon to be suitable for repair using COAPTIUM® CONNECT. 7. Subject is willing and able to provide written informed consent prior to any study specific procedures. 8. Subject is willing and able to complete all required visits and procedures at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any constituents of the product, including the polymer (Aminated polyglycerol sebacate acrylate) or the additive FD\&C Blue No. 1 Dye (brilliant blue FCF); 2. Known diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy; 3. Any injury requiring revascularization due to critical ischemia from damage to the blood vessels; 4. Subject's traumatic lesion is older than 14 days at the time of surgery; 5. Use of photosensitizing medications at the time of informed consent. 6. Concomitant neuromodulator medication; 7. Life expectancy less than 1 year; 8. History of neuropathic pain in the affected extremity; 9. History of injury to the nerve being studied; 10. Missing contralateral digit or history of injury to the contralateral digit (comparison/control area); 11. Unwillingness/inability to follow postoperative instructions/follow-up visits; 12. Concomitant intake of systemic immunosuppressive medications, steroids (\>20mg of prednisone /day or equivalent) and chemotherapy; 13. Prior radiation therapy to the surgical site; 14. Pregnancy detected by a positive pregnancy test or planned pregnancy during the study period or breast-feeding women; 15. History of chronic ischemic disease involving the affected limb; 16. Diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus or uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes mellitus (at the discretion of the investigator); 17. Subject is currently participating in a study involving an investigational device/drug that has not reached its primary endpoints or would interfere with the study endpoints. Note: Trials requiring extended follow-up for products that were investigational, but have since become commercially available, are not considered investigational trials; 18. Previous injury, surgery, pathology involving the same nerve or extremity; 19. Active infection at the surgical site; 20. In the opinion of the Investigator, the subject is not a suitable candidate for the clinical investigation.
