Frequently asked questions

Why choose Monosof nylon for soft tissue closure?

Monosof is composed of Nylon 6, a material valued for being inert and nonabsorbable. This helps minimize inflammatory responses and tissue irritation, supporting effective healing during and after wound closure.

What is the benefit of the reverse cutting needle?

The P-12 precision reverse cutting needle is engineered for superior cutting performance. It allows for controlled, accurate penetration through tissue while reducing the risk of tearing, making it ideal for delicate surgical procedures.

Does the monofilament design offer any advantages?

The monofilament construction ensures the suture passes smoothly through tissue with minimal drag, which helps reduce trauma to the surgical site compared to braided materials.

Does this suture maintain tension over time?

Yes. One of the primary advantages of Monosof is its high elasticity. It is engineered to maintain this elasticity even after implantation, which is critical for providing a secure and reliable wound closure.

Are these sutures sterile?

Yes, these Monosof sutures are provided sterile and ready for use in professional surgical settings.

Is this suture suitable for general surgery?

Yes, these sutures are specifically designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation in professional clinical and medical environments.

Is the suture coated?

No, these sutures are uncoated. They are composed of Nylon 6 and designed to provide smooth tissue passage through their inherent monofilament structure.

What is the needle's physical configuration?

The needle is a P-12 model featuring a 3/8 circle curvature and a 19 mm length, specifically designed for precise, controlled surgical handling.

How many sutures are included in a pack?

Each unit contains a 36-strand pack of nonabsorbable sutures with needles.

What is the expected shipping lead time?

This item ships directly from the manufacturer with an estimated lead time of 2-3 weeks.
