Frequently asked questions

Does this suture provide long-term wound support?

Yes, PDS II is specifically engineered for procedures requiring prolonged support. It maintains significant tensile strength post-procedure: 80% at 2 weeks, 70% at 4 weeks, and 60% at 6 weeks.

How long does it take for the suture to absorb?

This suture features a controlled, predictable absorption profile, with complete mass absorption occurring between 183 and 238 days.

Does this suture cause significant tissue reaction?

PDS II is designed with low reactivity to minimize tissue trauma, ensuring smooth passage through the tissue during closure.

Is this product sterile and ready for use?

Yes, all sutures are sterile and provided in factory-new condition, designed for immediate use in professional clinical environments.

Is this suture easy to see during surgery?

Yes, the suture is dyed violet, which provides excellent contrast and visibility against tissue during complex surgical procedures.

What kind of needle is included?

Each strand comes with a precision-engineered CP-2 1/2 circle reverse cutting needle made of stainless steel. This design is optimized for smooth tissue penetration and efficient approximation.

How many sutures are in a pack?

Each package contains 36 sterile strands, with one needle attached to each individual strand.

Is this a braided or monofilament suture?

It is a monofilament suture, which contributes to its low-drag performance and smooth passage through tissue.

What is the needle length for this size?

The CP-2 reverse cutting needle included in this pack has a length of 26 mm.

Is the suture coated for easier handling?

The PDS II suture is uncoated. It is engineered for smooth passage through tissue based on its monofilament composition.
