Description

Quill barbed suture PDO 2-0 violet is a synthetic, absorbable surgical suture designed to facilitate wound closure without the need for knot tying. The barbed structure allows for secure tissue approximation by distributing tension along the suture line, reducing operative time and enhancing wound stability. Composed of polydioxanone (PDO), the suture offers prolonged tensile strength before gradual absorption through hydrolysis, making it suitable for internal soft tissue applications.

The suture is equipped with a V-30 taper point needle, measuring 30 mm in length and featuring a 1/2 circle curvature. This configuration ensures smooth penetration through delicate and soft tissues while minimizing trauma. The uni-directional barbed design allows the suture to anchor itself within the tissue, eliminating the need for knots while ensuring uniform tension distribution.

As an absorbable material, the polydioxanone composition gradually degrades within the body over several months, maintaining sufficient tensile strength to support wound healing. The hydrolytic breakdown minimizes the risk of foreign body reactions, reducing post-operative complications.
