Description:
Polydioxanone (PDS) Suture is specifically designed for cases demanding prolonged wound support and enhanced strength. Retaining approximately 70% of its initial strength at 2 weeks, 50% at 4 weeks, and 25% at 6 weeks, this suture undergoes absorption through a simple hydrolysis process. Remarkably, it achieves complete absorption within a timeframe of 180 to 210 days. The absorption of Polydioxanone Suture is characterized by its reliability and predictability, making it a trusted choice in surgical applications where extended support and gradual absorption are essential.
Applications:
General orthopedic surgery
Sub cuticular
Gastrointestinal tract
Pediatric cardiovascular surgery
Sheath closure
General surgery
Properties:
Good Flexibility: The suture displays excellent flexibility, allowing for easy maneuverability and adaptation to various tissue structures during surgical procedures.
Reliable Knot Security: Providing dependable knot security, Polydioxanone Suture ensures the integrity of closures, contributing to the overall success of surgical interventions.
Smooth Passage Through Tissue: Designed for smooth tissue passage, this suture minimizes trauma during application, enhancing patient comfort and recovery.
Superior High Extended Tensile Strength: Boasting superior high extended tensile strength, Polydioxanone Suture delivers robust and sustained support, making it suitable for cases requiring prolonged wound support.
