Frequently asked questions
Is this suture safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, this product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice to help prevent latex-related allergic reactions in a clinical setting.
What is the primary benefit of the P-12 needle?
The P-12 precision reverse cutting needle features a 3/8 circle shape, which is specifically engineered to provide excellent control and ease of penetration during delicate tissue approximation.
Is this suture suitable for general soft tissue use?
Yes, it is professional-grade and engineered for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, commonly used in various fields including cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures.
Why choose monofilament nylon for this suture?
Monofilament nylon is preferred for its high tensile strength and smooth passage through tissue, which helps minimize trauma and provides consistent, reliable performance during closure.
Can these sutures be re-sterilized if unused?
No. These are strictly single-use devices. You must not re-sterilize or reuse them, as doing so compromises the sterile barrier and the integrity of the material.
Is this product intended for home use?
No, this product is strictly for professional use only within clinical and surgical environments.
Are these sutures individually sterile?
Yes, every unit is individually sterile and sealed in a peel-apart protective pouch to ensure optimal hygiene and safety upon opening.
Does the needle shape provide better precision?
The 3/8 circle shape of the P-12 needle is specifically chosen to assist surgeons in maneuvering precisely during procedures, particularly where controlled needle placement is vital.
Is the nylon coating smooth?
This suture is uncoated, which is a standard characteristic of high-grade monofilament nylon designed to provide the necessary grip and reliability for secure knots during surgery.
How many sutures are provided per order?
Each box contains 12 individual suture strands, each equipped with its own P-12 needle and sterile packaging.
