Frequently asked questions
Are these sutures suitable for general soft tissue work?
Yes, Monosof nylon sutures are specifically indicated for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, making them a reliable choice for surgical suites and outpatient clinics.
Do these sutures cause much tissue inflammation?
No, these sutures are designed to be inert, which helps elicit a minimal inflammatory response in the patient, facilitating optimal healing.
Is the material durable for long-term support?
Yes, these are made from long-chain aliphatic polymers (Nylon 6). This high-performance material ensures long-term structural integrity while maintaining high levels of elasticity after implantation.
Can these be used for absorbable procedures?
No, these are strictly nonabsorbable sutures. They are intended for applications where permanent or long-term structural support is required until the wound heals.
What type of needle is included with this suture?
This product features a professional-grade C-14 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle, which is optimized for precise, consistent performance during soft tissue procedures.
Are the needles pre-attached to the sutures?
Yes, the pack includes 36 strands of 18-inch suture, each with an integrated C-14 needle, ready for immediate use.
Is the suture coated for easier passage through tissue?
No, this specific configuration is uncoated. The monofilament design is engineered to be smooth and inert to provide secure approximation without the need for additional coatings.
What color is the nylon suture?
The suture material is black, which provides high visibility during the surgical procedure.
How many strands are in a standard pack?
Each pack contains 36 strands of high-quality, sterile nylon suture.
