Description

Express Gut Plain Suture, 5-0, PC-1, 18 is a high-performance surgical suture designed for precise and reliable tissue repair. Made from plain gut, this suture is absorbed naturally by the body over time, eliminating the need for removal. The 5-0 gauge indicates its fine caliber, making it suitable for delicate surgical procedures where minimal invasiveness and optimal precision are required.

The PC-1 needle configuration is specifically chosen for its sharpness and ability to penetrate tissue with minimal resistance, enhancing the ease of suturing and reducing tissue trauma. This needle type is particularly effective in various surgical scenarios where a tapered, fine-point needle is preferred for smooth passage through tissue.

With an 18-inch length, the suture provides sufficient material for a range of applications, ensuring versatility in both minor and moderately complex procedures. The plain gut material used in the suture is known for its predictable absorption profile, which is crucial for internal suturing where gradual support is needed during the healing process.
