Description

Suture, Ethibond Braided Green 0 CTX is a high-performance non-absorbable surgical suture known for its exceptional strength and durability. Made from polyester, this suture features a braided construction that enhances its handling characteristics and knot security. The green color of the suture ensures high visibility during surgery, facilitating precise placement and reducing the likelihood of errors.

The Ethibond suture's polyester composition offers excellent biocompatibility, minimizing the risk of adverse tissue reactions. Its braided design provides superior tensile strength and flexibility, allowing it to maintain its integrity under tension. This makes it ideal for procedures requiring long-term tissue support, such as cardiovascular, orthopedic, and general surgeries.

Equipped with a CTX needle, the Ethibond suture facilitates precise and efficient suturing. The CTX needle is a large, curved needle designed for ease of use in dense or thick tissues. Its sharpness and strength ensure smooth penetration and secure anchoring of the suture, minimizing tissue trauma.

Suture, Ethibond Braided Green 0 CTX is sterilized and meticulously packaged to maintain its sterility and integrity. Each suture undergoes stringent quality control to ensure consistency and reliability in surgical applications. The packaging is designed to protect the suture from contamination and damage, preserving its sterile condition until use.

A nonabsorbable, braided, sterile, surgical suture composed of Poly (ethylene, terephthalate). It is prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component. It is uniformly coated with polybutilate or poly {oxy-1, 4 butanediyloxy (1, 6-dioxo-1, 6 hexanediyl)}. The highly adherent coating is a relatively nonreactive nonabsorbable compound which acts as a lubricant to mechanically improve the physical p roperties of the uncoated suture by improving handling qualities as contrasted to the braided, uncoated fiber. The suture is braided for optimal handling properties, and dyed green for enhanced visibility in the surgical field.
