Frequently asked questions
Does this suture offer reliable knot security?
Yes. The Perma-Hand silk suture is finished with a unique wax coating, which is specifically designed to provide superior knot security and ensure the suture remains firmly in place after closure.
Is the suture material treated for smoother tissue passage?
Absolutely. During the manufacturing process, the silk is meticulously processed to remove natural waxes and gums. It is then finished with a special wax mixture to ensure the suture glides smoothly through tissue with minimal drag.
How does the braided design benefit clinical performance?
The braided construction of this silk suture is engineered for high tensile strength. It also provides minimal capillarity, which contributes to more consistent and reliable performance during surgical wound closures.
What are the specific advantages of the reverse-cutting needle?
The included 60 mm straight, reverse-cutting stainless steel needle (KS code) is designed for efficient tissue penetration, making it an excellent choice for achieving precise and reliable closure in general surgical applications.
Is the suture suitable for general surgical applications?
Yes, Perma-Hand silk sutures are professional-grade, sterile devices specifically designed for use in clinical and surgical environments for various general wound closure procedures.
Is this product sterile and ready for use?
Yes, every Perma-Hand suture is provided as a sterile device, ensuring it meets the safety requirements for surgical environments right out of the box.
What is the total length of each suture strand?
Each individual suture strand is 30 inches long, providing sufficient length for a wide variety of standard surgical suturing techniques.
Does the package contain multiple strands?
Each unit includes 36 individual strands, each equipped with one attached stainless steel needle, offering a robust supply for clinical needs.
What is the primary material used in these sutures?
These sutures are crafted from high-quality silk, an organic protein source that has been professional-grade processed to ensure optimal surgical performance and handling.
Are these sutures effective at reducing tissue reaction?
By removing natural gums and waxes and utilizing a specialized wax coating, the Perma-Hand suture is optimized to minimize friction, thereby aiding in smooth tissue passage during the suturing process.
