Description
Suture, PDS Mono Clear 4-0, 18 PS2 is an advanced surgical tool meticulously designed to support precise wound closure in medical procedures. Crafted from PDS Mono Clear, a synthetic, absorbable polymer, this suture offers biocompatibility and superior tensile strength. The clear composition enhances visibility during suturing, allowing for accurate placement in various surgical applications.
With a finely calibrated diameter of 4-0, this suture balances strength and finesse, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of surgical procedures. The designation "18 PS2" signifies that each package contains 18 sutures, providing an ample supply for diverse surgical needs.
The PS2 coating on the suture facilitates smooth passage through tissues, reducing tissue drag and trauma during suturing. This feature is particularly advantageous in delicate surgical procedures with paramount precision and minimal tissue disruption.
PDS II (polydioxanone) monofilament synthetic absorbable suture is prepared from the polyester, poly (p-dioxanone). PDS sutures are indicated for use in soft tissue approximation, including use in pediatric cardiovascular tissue where growth is expected to occur and ophthalmic surgery. PDS suture is not indicated in adult cardiovascular tissue, microsurgery and neural tissue. These sutures are particularly useful where the combination of an absorbable suture and extended wound support (up to six weeks) is desirable.
