This product is a surgical suture designed for wound closure. It consists of a synthetic monofilament suture made from polypropylene, a material known for its inertness and high tensile strength, ensuring long-term tissue support. The suture is non-absorbable, meaning it will remain in the tissue indefinitely unless removed.
The suture diameter is specified as USP 7-0, indicating a very fine gauge suitable for delicate surgical procedures. The suture is presented in a blue color for enhanced visibility during surgery. Each unit includes a double-ended needle, featuring two 9.
3mm needles attached to the suture strand. The needles are crafted from Ethalloy, a specialized alloy providing strength and resistance to deformation. The needle geometry is described as 3/8 circle, a common curvature for navigating various tissue planes, and it features a taper point designed for atraumatic tissue penetration.
The overall length of the suture strand is 60 cm. This configuration is supplied in a box containing 36 individual foil-wrapped units.
