Monocryl® Plus Suture 4-0 | 18" | PS-2 | 3/8 Circle Undyed

Product Overview: 

MONOCRYL® Plus Sutures are high-performance, absorbable surgical sutures designed for soft tissue approximation and ligation. The 4-0 gauge sutures, with an 18" length and PS-2 needle (3/8 circle), provide exceptional handling properties, knot security, and minimal tissue reaction. These sutures are undyed, making them ideal for a wide range of surgical applications where discreet wound closure is desired.

Key Features:

1. Antibacterial Coating:
   • MONOCRYL® Plus Sutures are coated with an antibacterial agent, triclosan, which helps reduce the risk of surgical site infections (SSIs). This added protection is crucial in preventing post-operative complications and promoting faster healing.
2. Absorbable Material:
   • Made from poliglecaprone 25, these sutures are absorbable and gradually hydrolyze over time, eliminating the need for suture removal. This feature enhances patient comfort and convenience.
3. Superior Handling:
   • The sutures offer excellent pliability and flexibility, ensuring easy handling and precise knot placement. The smooth texture allows for minimal tissue drag, reducing trauma during suturing.
4. Predictable Absorption:
   • MONOCRYL® Plus Sutures provide predictable absorption rates, typically fully absorbed between 91 and 119 days. This consistent absorption profile ensures reliable wound support during the critical healing period.
5. Optimal Knot Security:
   • Designed to hold knots securely, these sutures minimize the risk of knot slippage, ensuring stable wound closure and promoting optimal healing outcomes.
6. Undyed Option:
   • The undyed sutures are ideal for cosmetic and other procedures where a less visible suture line is preferred, providing a more aesthetic result.

Intended Use: MONOCRYL® Plus Sutures are intended for use in soft tissue approximation and ligation, including plastic surgery, general closure, and other surgical procedures where an absorbable suture is appropriate. The 4-0 gauge is suitable for delicate tissues and finer suturing needs.

Benefits:

• Antibacterial Protection: Triclosan coating helps reduce the risk of SSIs, contributing to safer surgical outcomes.
• Ease of Use: Excellent handling and knot security enhance surgical efficiency and precision.
• Patient Comfort: Absorbable material eliminates the need for suture removal, improving patient comfort and convenience.
