Frequently asked questions
Why is Monosof nylon preferred for soft tissue?
Monosof nylon is highly regarded because it is an inert material, which helps minimize tissue reactivity and lowers the inflammatory response during the healing process.
What is the benefit of the reverse cutting needle?
The Precision Reverse Cutting Needle is specifically engineered to provide controlled and accurate tissue penetration while minimizing potential trauma to the surrounding tissue during the suturing process.
Is this suture suitable for general ligation?
Yes, this suture is specifically designed and indicated for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, making it a versatile tool for various clinical surgical procedures.
Does the suture maintain tension after surgery?
Yes, the Monosof monofilament structure is composed of high-performance Nylon 6 polymers, which are designed to provide consistent performance and maintain reliable tension post-implantation.
Are these sutures absorbable?
No, these are nonabsorbable sutures made from long-chain aliphatic polymers designed for permanent or semi-permanent tissue approximation.
Why is the suture dyed black?
The suture is dyed black to ensure high visibility against the surgical site, allowing for better precision and easier identification during the procedure.
What type of needle geometry is included?
Each unit comes with a P-12 3/8 circle precision needle. This geometry is optimized for accurate handling in soft tissue applications.
Is this product provided sterile?
Yes, every package is delivered sterile and ready for use in professional clinical environments.
How many strands are in a box?
