The MacSuture Absorbable Suture Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) is designed to provide superior performance and reliability for a wide range of surgical applications. Known for its exceptional strength and predictable absorption profile, this suture is an ideal choice for various soft tissue approximations and ligations.
Key Features:
-
High-Quality Material: Made from polyglycolic acid, this suture offers excellent tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction. Polyglycolic acid is a synthetic, absorbable material that is hydrolyzed in tissue, providing dependable wound support during the critical healing period.
-
Violet Color: The violet color of the suture enhances visibility during surgical procedures, making it easier for the surgeon to distinguish the suture from the surrounding tissue.
-
Gauge Size 5-0: The 5-0 gauge size is suitable for delicate and fine tissue approximations, often used in plastic surgery, ophthalmic procedures, and microsurgery.
-
Length of 45 cm: The 45 cm length provides ample material for a variety of suturing techniques and applications, allowing for efficient handling and reduced waste.
-
3/8 Circle Needle: The 3/8 circle needle is designed for ease of penetration and smooth passage through tissue. It provides precise control and is ideal for curved or deep surgical sites.
-
RC 13mm Precision Needle: The RC (Reverse Cutting) needle has a sharp, triangular point that ensures clean, accurate cuts through tough or dense tissues. The 13mm size offers a balance between maneuverability and the strength needed for various surgical procedures.
-
Absorbable: This suture is absorbable, eliminating the need for removal and reducing patient discomfort. The predictable absorption profile ensures that the suture retains its tensile strength for an appropriate duration before being fully absorbed by the body.
-
Sterilized: Each suture is individually packed and sterilized to ensure safety and sterility, minimizing the risk of infection and ensuring optimal performance.
