Standardized Tenacity Score:
The mean TSS for all barriers with reported data was 43.06 (control 73.55). Polyglycolic Acid Mesh had the highest TSS (78.33 (control 84.33)), followed by Spraygel (66.67; control 73.33), PTFE + SprayGel (63.33; control 73.33), REPEL-CV (58.42; control 77.67), Seprafilm (50.32; control 70.01), COSEAL (36.12; control 75.00), Porcine and Polyester Gelatin Sheet (33.33), Glutaraldehyde-Preserved Equine Patch (32.00; control 64.00), PTFE (26.50; control 80.26), and Cova CARD (15.00). Similar to the adhesion formation rate, Polyisoprene Blue Band Strips was the only barrier to have a TSS of 0.00. Silicone Rubber and PTFE + Seprafilm did not have reported data for TSS.
