Description

Medtronic Devices Plain Gut Sutures. PLAIN 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. 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; Suture smoothness to facilitate knot run-down and knot strength, due to electronic polishing of each strand. PLAIN 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

Do these sutures use purified bovine collagen?

Yes, Medtronic Plain Gut Sutures are composed of purified connective tissue (collagen) sourced from the serosal layer of bovine (beef) intestines.

This high-purity material is crucial as it is designed to deliver:

  • Predictable Performance: Maximizing collagen purity ensures reliable tensile strength and predictable in-vivo absorption.
  • Natural Absorption: As a natural, collagen-based material, the sutures are naturally absorbed by the body after use.

For enhanced handling, each strand also undergoes electronic polishing, which facilitates smooth knot run-down and promotes strong knot security.

Are Medtronic Devices Plain Gut Sutures absorbable?

Yes, these sutures are absorbable. They are designed for general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including ophthalmic surgery, where the body naturally absorbs the suture material over time.

What are the recommended uses for these sutures?

These sutures are designed for versatility in procedures where an absorbable material is desired. They are made from high-purity purified bovine collagen (Plain Gut) and are electronically polished to ensure excellent smoothness and knot security.

These sutures are primarily indicated for:

  • General soft tissue approximation and ligation.
  • Specific procedures such as ophthalmic surgery.

Important Limitation: These sutures are strictly not indicated for use in cardiovascular or neurological surgical procedures.

What is the packaging solution composition?

These sterile sutures are packaged in a specific solution designed to maintain their integrity and readiness for use.

The composition of the packaging solution is:

  • Isopropanol: 89%
  • Water: 10%
  • Triethanolamine: 1%
What range of suture sizes is offered?

The Medtronic Plain Gut Sutures are available in a comprehensive range suitable for various soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures. The offered sizes span from the finest 6-0 (six-ought) up to Size 1.

Are the sutures guaranteed to be sterile?

Yes, the Medtronic Devices Plain Gut Sutures are guaranteed to be sterile surgical sutures. They are supplied in a Factory New condition and are packaged to ensure they maintain sterility until use, which is essential for safety and optimal performance in general soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures.

What configurations are available for these sutures?

Medtronic Plain Gut Sutures are offered in a wide selection of configurations to suit diverse surgical needs for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. Available options include:

  • Suture Sizes: Ranging from Size 1 down to 6-0.
  • Needle Types: A comprehensive array of geometries is offered, including Reverse Cutting, Taper Point, Straight Cutting, and Spatula (with Premium variants also available).
  • Needle Curvature: Needles come in various shapes, such as ½ Circle, 3/8 Circle, and ¼ Circle.
  • Needle-Free Options: Configurations are also offered as Reel or Standard Length without an attached needle.
  • Packaging: Quantities typically include 1 dozen/box, 2 dozen/box, or 3 dozen/box.
What suture sizes and needle configurations are available?

The Medtronic Devices Plain Gut Sutures are offered in an extensive range of sizes and configurations suitable for general soft tissue approximation and ligation.

Available Suture Sizes (Gauges)

The sutures are provided in standard surgical sizes, ranging from fine to larger gauges:

  • Size 1
  • Size 0
  • Size 2-0
  • Size 3-0
  • Size 4-0
  • Size 5-0
  • Size 6-0

Needle and Delivery Options

Configurations include sutures packaged with various needles, or as standard lengths/reels without needles (No Needle).

Key needle types available include:

  • Reverse Cutting
  • Straight Cutting
  • Taper Point
  • Spatula

Various specific needle sizes and shapes (e.g., C-23, P-13, GS-21) are available across these configurations.

Does electronic polishing improve suture handling?

Yes, electronic polishing is a key step in the manufacturing process designed specifically to enhance suture performance and handling:

  • Optimized Smoothness: Every strand undergoes electronic polishing to guarantee exceptional suture smoothness.
  • Enhanced Knot Security: This smoothness facilitates efficient knot run-down and significantly improves the overall knot strength and security during surgical procedures.
Is the plain gut suture material purified and polished?

Yes, these sutures are specifically manufactured to ensure high purity and optimal handling.

  • Purity and Strength: The sutures are composed of purified collagen derived from the serosal layer of bovine intestines. This highly selected raw material guarantees superior purity, resulting in optimal tensile strength and reliable in-vivo performance.
  • Smoothness and Performance: A key step in the manufacturing process is the electronic polishing of each individual strand. This specialized finish ensures exceptional suture smoothness, facilitating easy knot run-down and improving overall knot security and strength during approximation.
