Description

PDO Variable Loop Violet Absorbable Suture with 36 mm 1/2 Circle Taper Point CT is a specialized surgical suture designed to provide secure wound closure without the need for tying knots. The suture features barbs that evenly distribute tension across the wound, enhancing both security and speed during closure. This unique feature reduces the time required for wound closure procedures, improving overall efficiency in surgical settings.

The helical barb pattern of the suture maximizes tissue grab, ensuring a strong hold and preventing displacement during the healing process. This design offers superior performance by securely approximating tissues, facilitating smoother healing. The variable loop configuration further enhances the handling and flexibility of the suture, making it easier for surgeons to work with in various wound closure scenarios.

The suture is made from polydioxanone (PDO), a material known for its strength and controlled absorption properties. PDO is suitable for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, excluding cardiovascular, neurological, microsurgery, or ophthalmic applications. It retains up to 90% of its tensile strength by day 14, with gradual absorption over time
