Description

Medtronic Polysorb Coated Synthetic Absorbable Size 3-0 Taper Point Sutures. Composed of LACTOMER glycolide/lactide copolymer which is a synthetic polyester composed of glycolide and lactide derived from glycolic and lactic acids. POLYSORB sutures are prepared by coating the suture with a mixture of caprolactone/glycolide copolymer and calcium stearoyl lactylate. The advanced extrusion process of the molecule of LACTOMER 9-1, the exclusive braiding process and coating system give the suture: Excellent strength over the critical wound healing period; Excellent knot security; Excellent handling; Predictable absorption profile. POLYSORB sutures are indicated for use in soft tissue approximation or ligation and ophthalmic surgery, but not in cardiovascular or neural tissue.

Frequently asked questions

Are these sutures suitable for all tissue types?

Medtronic Polysorb sutures are specifically designed for soft tissue approximation or ligation and ophthalmic surgery. They are not intended for use in cardiovascular or neural tissue.

Do these sutures offer superior strength and handling?

Yes, Medtronic Polysorb sutures are specifically engineered for optimal surgical performance, prioritizing strength, security, and handling.

Key performance characteristics are derived from their advanced composition and manufacturing process:

  • Advanced Material: They are made from LACTOMER glycolide/lactide copolymer (a synthetic polyester), offering predictable absorption.
  • Enhanced Coating: The suture is coated with a proprietary mixture of caprolactone/glycolide copolymer and calcium stearoyl lactylate for improved performance.
  • Excellent Strength Retention: The advanced construction maintains excellent in-vivo strength throughout the critical wound healing period.
  • Superior Handling and Knot Security: An exclusive braiding and coating system provides superior handling characteristics and ensures excellent knot security.

These features make the sutures highly effective for general soft tissue approximation, ligation, and ophthalmic surgery.

Does this suture have a predictable absorption profile?

Yes, these Medtronic Polysorb sutures are designed to offer a predictable absorption profile.

They are made from LACTOMER glycolide/lactide copolymer, a synthetic polyester that provides a known and reliable rate of absorption throughout the wound healing period.

Do these sutures have excellent strength retention?

Yes, Medtronic Polysorb sutures are highly engineered to offer excellent strength retention during the critical wound healing period. This superior performance is a direct result of their advanced composition and manufacturing process.

Key features ensuring reliable performance include:

  • Material Composition: The sutures are made from LACTOMER glycolide/lactide copolymer, a synthetic polyester that provides superior strength retention.
  • Superior Handling and Security: The advanced extrusion and exclusive braiding processes, combined with a specialized coating (caprolactone/glycolide copolymer and calcium stearoyl lactylate), result in superior handling characteristics and reliable knot security.
  • Predictable Absorption: They are designed to provide a reliable and predictable rate of absorption post-implantation, making them ideal for soft tissue approximation, ligation, and ophthalmic surgery.
Is this suture available in size 3-0?

Yes, these Medtronic Polysorb Coated Synthetic Absorbable Sutures are consistently manufactured and supplied in Size 3-0. This specific size is uniform across all available configurations and variants, including different needle types and lengths.

Do these sutures feature a specialized coating for superior handling?

Yes, the Medtronic Polysorb sutures feature a specialized coating system designed to enhance performance, handling, and security. This is one of the key selling points of the product.

Coating Composition:

  • Caprolactone/glycolide copolymer
  • Calcium stearoyl lactylate

Key Performance Benefits:
This advanced coating works alongside the exclusive LACTOMER braiding process to deliver:

  • Superior Handling Characteristics: Facilitating smooth passage and manipulation during procedures.
  • Reliable Knot Security: Ensuring the knots remain secure.
  • Excellent Strength Retention: Maintaining tensile strength throughout the critical wound healing phase.
What are the packaging quantities available?

The Medtronic Polysorb sutures are available in several standard configurations based on dozens per box to meet various clinical demands. The available packaging quantities are:

  • 1 dozen per box (1 dz/bx)
  • 2 dozen per box (2 dz/bx)
  • 3 dozen per box (3 dz/bx)
