Frequently asked questions
Does this suture minimize tissue reaction?
Yes, the Ethilon nylon suture is specifically engineered with a long polymer chain design. This construction is intended to cause minimal acute inflammatory response, which supports a more natural healing process for the patient.
Is this suture easy to see during surgery?
Absolutely. The suture material is dyed black, which provides excellent contrast against surrounding tissue, ensuring high visibility and precision during delicate surgical procedures.
What is the primary benefit of the spatula needle?
The 3/8 circle spatula needle is designed for high-precision surgical interventions. Its shape is specifically chosen to minimize tissue trauma during wound closure.
How durable is this suture for long-term support?
This suture is highly reliable for extended support. Known for its extremely slow encapsulation and degradation, it remains effective for 1 to 2 years at the closure site.
Is the monofilament construction smooth for tissue passage?
Yes, the monofilament nylon construction is specifically crafted to ensure a smooth passage through tissue, which reduces drag and helps minimize potential trauma.
Is this product guaranteed to be sterile?
Yes, every Ethilon suture is supplied as sterile in clinical-grade packaging to ensure it meets the rigorous safety requirements of a surgical environment.
Does the needle come pre-attached?
Yes, each unit features one 3/8 circle spatula needle already securely attached to the 6-inch monofilament strand, ready for immediate clinical use.
What is the specific needle size for this model?
This specific model (2890G) features a precision-engineered needle length of 5 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature.
Is this suture coated or uncoated?
This model features an uncoated monofilament surface, which is standard for Ethilon nylon to maintain optimal handling characteristics and tensile strength.
How many strands are included in the package?
Each package contains 12 strands of the 9-0 size Ethilon nylon suture, allowing for multiple applications from a single order.
