Skin Closure
The 1637G Chromic Gut Sutures are premium-quality absorbable surgical sutures designed for reliable and effective wound closure. These sutures are crafted from chromic gut, a natural material known for its excellent tensile strength and predictable absorption rate, making them ideal for a wide range of surgical applications.
Key Features:
- Suture Size: 4-0
- Suitable for delicate tissue repair and closure, offering optimal control and minimal tissue reaction.
- Provides ample length for various surgical techniques and procedures, ensuring ease of use and flexibility.
- PS-2 (Plastic Surgery 2) needles are precisely engineered for precision and smooth penetration, minimizing trauma to tissues.
- The 3/8 circle needle shape allows for precise placement and easy handling, especially in confined or delicate areas.
- Made from chromicized gut, these sutures offer enhanced tensile strength and a controlled absorption profile, ensuring reliable wound support during the critical initial healing period.
- Chromic gut sutures are absorbable, gradually breaking down and being absorbed by the body, eliminating the need for suture removal and reducing patient discomfort.
Applications: The 1637G Chromic Gut Sutures are suitable for various surgical procedures, including:
- General soft tissue approximation and ligation
- Gastrointestinal surgery
- Gynecological surgery
- Urological surgery
- Ophthalmic surgery
Benefits:
- Enhanced Handling: The chromic gut material ensures superior knot security and smooth passage through tissues, enhancing surgical efficiency.
- Predictable Absorption: Designed for predictable absorption within 10-14 days, providing temporary wound support while minimizing the risk of prolonged tissue reaction.
- Reduced Tissue Trauma: The PS-2 needle and 3/8 circle design minimize tissue trauma, promoting faster and more comfortable healing.
