Frequently asked questions
Are these sutures truly inert for surgical use?
Yes, Surgipro sutures are composed of an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene and polyethylene. This composition makes them biologically inert, ensuring reliable and predictable performance during surgical procedures.
Is the monofilament structure good for knot security?
Absolutely. The uncoated monofilament structure is specifically engineered to provide excellent knot-tying security while maintaining smooth passage through delicate tissues.
Does this needle design help minimize tissue trauma?
Yes, the 13 mm P-13 precision reverse cutting needle is designed with a 3/8 circle shape specifically to minimize tissue trauma while facilitating precise and effective wound edge approximation.
Is the blue color helpful during surgery?
The suture is provided in a dyed blue synthetic format. This specific coloration is chosen to provide high visibility against the surgical site, allowing the surgeon to track the suture placement accurately throughout the procedure.
Are these suitable for cardiovascular procedures?
Yes, these sutures are versatile and specifically engineered for use in both general and cardiovascular surgical procedures where a reliable nonabsorbable material is required.
Is the needle made of high-quality material?
The needle is crafted from a high-quality, durable alloy designed to maintain its precision and sharpness, ensuring consistent performance throughout the surgical application.
How long is each individual suture strand?
Each suture strand in this pack is 18 inches long, providing an ideal length for most general and cardiovascular surgical applications.
Are these sutures provided in sterile packaging?
Yes, the product is supplied as sterile to ensure it meets the rigorous safety and hygiene standards required for surgical environments.
Is this a monofilament suture?
Yes, it is a monofilament suture. This design is favored for its smoothness, which reduces tissue drag and provides a more consistent experience compared to braided alternatives.
How many sutures are included in one package?
Each unit contains 12 strands, all featuring the high-quality P-13 precision reverse cutting needle, ensuring you have enough for your procedure requirements.
