Frequently asked questions
Does this suture provide reliable tensile strength?
Yes, it is designed for a predictable absorption profile. It retains significant integrity during the critical healing period, with a 50% loss of tensile strength occurring after 3 weeks.
Is this suture easy for surgeons to handle?
Absolutely. It is engineered specifically for excellent handling and smooth passage through tissue, which is essential for efficient surgical procedures.
Does this provide secure knotting?
Yes, the braided construction and coating are designed to provide superior knot security right from the very first throw.
How long does full absorption take?
The suture offers a reliable absorption timeline, with complete mass absorption occurring between 56 to 76 days post-application.
Is the needle design optimized for precision?
Yes, the CT-2 taper point needle features a 1/2 circle curvature, which is specifically designed to facilitate precise navigation through various tissue types.
Are there specific tissue types this should avoid?
While this suture is versatile for many soft tissue and orthopedic applications, it is not intended for use in cardiovascular or neurological tissues.
What is the material composition of the suture?
The suture is made from Polyglactin 910, a high-quality dyed synthetic material that is braided to ensure strength and flexibility.
Is this suitable for ophthalmic procedures?
Yes, it is clinically versatile and indicated for a wide range of procedures, including ophthalmic, reproductive tract, muscle approximation, and orthopedic applications.
What is the needle made of?
The needle is manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring durability and consistent performance during surgical use.
How many strands are included in a pack?
