Frequently asked questions
Does this suture offer reliable knot security?
Yes, the Perma-Hand suture is specifically finished with a special wax coating. This treatment significantly improves handling characteristics and ensures excellent knot security during your surgical procedures.
Is the material processed to ensure purity?
Absolutely. Each strand of braided silk is meticulously processed to remove natural waxes and gums. This refinement ensures a cleaner, more consistent material for reliable wound closure.
How does this needle handle tissue penetration?
The suture comes with an FSL-coded 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle. This design is specifically engineered for effective tissue penetration, allowing for precise and secure tissue apposition in clinical environments.
Is the suture design optimized to reduce capillarity?
Yes. Through advanced manufacturing processes, this suture is specifically designed to minimize excess capillarity, which enhances the overall clinical performance and reliability of the material.
What is the specific needle construction?
The needle is crafted from high-quality stainless steel. It features a 30 mm length and a 3/8 circle reverse cutting geometry, providing the strength and precision required for professional medical applications.
Is this product suitable for sterile surgical environments?
Yes, the Perma-Hand suture is manufactured as a sterile product, making it appropriate for use in professional clinical and surgical settings where maintaining a sterile field is critical.
What is the composition of the suture material?
The suture is a 12-strand braided silk, composed of natural organic protein. This combination offers a balance of flexibility, strength, and reliable performance for wound closure.
How long is each individual suture strand?
Each unit provides an 18-inch length of suture, offering sufficient material for standard wound closure procedures while maintaining ease of handling.
What specific needle geometry does it use?
The needle utilizes a 3/8 circle curve geometry. This specific curvature is optimized for better control during surgical entry and precise manipulation through various tissue types.
Does this suture handle smoothly during procedures?
Yes. By removing impurities and applying a specialized wax finish, the suture is designed to provide smooth manipulation, reducing drag and allowing for more controlled and accurate placement by the surgeon.
