Description

Medtronic Chromic Gut Pre-Cut Sutures. CHROMIC GUT sutures are absorbable sterile surgical sutures composed of purified connective tissue (mostly collagen) derived from the serosal layer of beef (bovine) intestines. They are packaged in a solution of 89% isopropanol, 10% water and 1% triethanolmaine. Chromic gut is treated with chromic salt solution. Mild chromic sutures are specially treated for ophthalmic and cuticular applications. The manufacture of catgut raw material, consisting of long ribbons of highly selected serosal tissue, ensures: Purity of collagen for optimal tensile strength and in-vivo performance; Uniform treatment with a buffered chromium salt solution, resulting in a chromic strand with a more predictable strength and uniform in-vivo absorption; Surface smoothness to facilitate knot run-down and knot strength, due to electronic polishing of each strand. CHROMIC GUT sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in ophthalmic surgery, but not in cardiovascular or neurological surgery.

Frequently asked questions

Are the sutures sterile?

Yes, the sutures are sterile.

Do these sutures offer predictable absorption?

Yes, these absorbable chromic gut sutures are specifically designed for predictable in-vivo absorption and consistent performance.

This reliability is achieved through several features:

  • Uniform Chromic Treatment: Each strand is uniformly treated with a buffered chromium salt solution. This critical step ensures a more predictable absorption profile and consistent retention of tensile strength.
  • High-Quality Bovine Collagen: The sutures are constructed from highly purified connective tissue (collagen) derived from the serosal layer of beef (bovine) intestines, which ensures optimal tensile strength and performance.
Are they safe for eye surgery?

Yes, these sutures are indicated for use in ophthalmic surgery, in addition to general soft tissue approximation and ligation.

Are these absorbable sutures?

Yes, these are absorbable sterile surgical sutures, eliminating the need for suture removal.

Are the absorption and strength retention predictable?

Yes, predictable performance is a key feature of Medtronic Chromic Gut sutures.

They are engineered with a uniform treatment of buffered chromium salt solution to ensure reliable surgical outcomes. This treatment specifically provides:

  • Predictable Tensile Strength Retention: Ensures consistent strength throughout the necessary healing period.
  • Consistent Absorption Kinetics: Guarantees uniform and predictable in-vivo absorption once implanted in soft tissue.
Are these sutures pre-cut and needle-free?

Yes, these Medtronic Chromic Gut Sutures are supplied pre-cut and without needles across all available configurations. They are packaged 2 dozen per box (2 dz/bx).

This configuration is specifically designed for immediate use in procedures requiring precise, pre-measured lengths without an attached needle.

Material and Quality Highlights

These sutures offer predictable performance thanks to their design and manufacturing:

  • Absorbable Material: Composed of purified bovine intestinal collagen and treated uniformly with a buffered chromium salt solution to ensure consistent tensile strength retention and in-vivo absorption.
  • Superior Handling: Each strand is electronically polished to achieve maximum surface smoothness, which facilitates optimal knot run-down and highly secure knot tying.
  • Preservation: The sutures are immersed in a specialized packaging solution consisting of 89% isopropanol, 10% water, and 1% triethanolamine.
Are these sutures made from high-purity collagen?

Yes, these sutures are manufactured from highly purified collagen.

This material is derived specifically from the serosal layer of bovine intestines. The manufacturing process emphasizes high purity collagen to ensure optimal tensile strength and reliable, predictable in-vivo performance.

Do these sutures feature high-quality electronic polishing?

Yes, these Medtronic Chromic Gut Pre-Cut Sutures are engineered for enhanced handling through a specialized manufacturing step: electronic polishing.

This process is critical because it ensures superior surface smoothness, which directly provides two major benefits during surgical approximation and ligation:

  • Facilitating Easy Knot Run-Down: The smooth finish allows the knot to be seated quickly and efficiently.
  • Ensuring Strong Knot Security: The electronic polishing helps maintain reliable knot strength throughout the procedure, minimizing slippage.
What solution are these sutures packaged in?

The Medtronic Chromic Gut Pre-Cut Sutures are packaged in a specific antiseptic solution to maintain their sterility and material integrity. The preservation solution consists of three components:

  • Isopropanol: 89%
  • Water: 10%
  • Triethanolmaine: 1%
Do they include a needle?

No, these pre-cut sutures do not include a needle.
