Description

Medtronic/Minimally Invasive Therapies Group Suture, Blunt Taper Point, Size 1, Blue, 40", Needle BGS-25, ½ Circle, 3 dz/bx . SURGIPRO sutures (clear or pigmented) are inert, nonabsorbable, sterile sutures composed of an isotactic, crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene and contain polyethylene. The suture is pigmented blue to enhance visibility. The advanced extrusion process of the polypropylene molecule gives the suture: Uniform diameter; Maximum flexibility of the strand; Excellent security with snug and flattened knots; Minimal memory and reduced "pig-tailing"; Consistent knotting strength. Indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological surgery.

Frequently asked questions

What high-quality material are Surgipro II sutures made of?

Medtronic Surgipro II sutures are made from a blend of polypropylene and polyethylene. This combination ensures they are inert, nonabsorbable, and provide long-lasting support with minimal tissue reaction.

What reliable needle point do these sutures feature?

These Medtronic Surgipro II sutures are designed with a blunt taper point needle. This specific needle type is crucial for certain surgical procedures, providing controlled tissue penetration.

What is the precise suture size of the Surgipro II?

The Medtronic Surgipro II sutures are available in size 1.

What is the optimal suture length?

Each Surgipro II suture provides an optimal 40-inch length, designed for versatility and ease of use in various surgical applications. This generous length helps ensure surgeons have sufficient material for secure soft tissue approximation and ligation.

How are these sutures conveniently packaged?

These Surgipro II sutures are conveniently packaged with 3 dozen (36 units) per box, ensuring an ample supply for medical procedures.

Are Medtronic Surgipro II sutures absorbable?

No, Surgipro II sutures are nonabsorbable monofilament sutures.

What surgical procedures are these sutures suitable for?

These sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological surgeries.

What is the purpose of the blue pigmentation in these sutures?

The sutures are pigmented blue for enhanced visibility in the surgical field.

What benefits does the advanced extrusion process offer?

The advanced extrusion process of the polypropylene molecule ensures several key benefits for these sutures:

  • Uniform Diameter: Provides consistent thickness along the entire suture.
  • Maximum Flexibility: Allows for easier handling during procedures.
  • Excellent Knot Security: Ensures snug and flattened knots that hold securely.
  • Minimal Memory: Reduces “pig-tailing” for smoother manipulation.
  • Consistent Knotting Strength: Guarantees reliable strength at the knot.
What is the precise needle description for these sutures?

These sutures feature a Blunt Taper Point needle. Specifically, the needle is a BGS-25 with a ½ Circle shape, designed for optimal performance in surgical procedures.
