The 1643G Chromic Gut Sutures are a reliable and versatile choice for medical professionals performing various surgical procedures. Crafted from high-quality chromic gut, these sutures are designed to offer excellent tensile strength and secure wound closure while ensuring patient comfort and optimal healing.
Key Features:
- Material:
- Chromic Gut: The sutures are made from natural collagen derived from the submucosal layers of bovine intestines. They are treated with chromic salts to enhance their strength and prolong their absorption period.
- Size 4-0: This suture size is ideal for delicate tissues, offering the right balance of strength and minimal tissue reaction.
- 18 Inches (45 cm): The length is suitable for a variety of surgical applications, providing sufficient material for secure knots and precise suturing.
- PS-4 Needle: This premium-grade needle ensures smooth penetration and minimizes tissue trauma. It is designed for ease of handling and accurate placement.
- 1/2 Circle Curved Needle: The needle's curvature is specifically designed for reaching and suturing in challenging anatomical areas, providing superior control and precision.
- Prolonged Absorption: Chromic gut sutures are absorbed by the body over a longer period compared to plain gut sutures. This makes them suitable for tissues that require extended support during the healing process.
- Consistent Performance: The chromic treatment ensures predictable absorption and consistent performance in wound closure.
- Ideal for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including procedures involving the gastrointestinal tract, urological, gynecological, and ophthalmic surgeries.
- Particularly useful in situations where extended wound support is required and where minimal tissue reaction is desired.
- Sterile: Each suture is individually packaged and sterilized to ensure the highest standards of safety and hygiene.
- Convenient Packaging: The sutures are packaged in a way that maintains their sterility and allows for easy and quick access during surgical procedures.
Benefits:
- Optimal Handling: The chromic gut material is flexible and easy to handle, making suturing straightforward and efficient.
- Enhanced Healing: The prolonged absorption period provides the necessary support for tissues to heal properly, reducing the risk of dehiscence.
- Reduced Tissue Reaction: The chromic treatment minimizes tissue inflammation and promotes a smoother healing process.
