Description

The Suture, Caprosyn UD 5/0 18 P-13 is a synthetic absorbable suture designed to facilitate efficient tissue approximation and ligation. Constructed from a durable polymer material, Caprosyn offers quick absorption and a monofilament design, which ensures smooth passage through tissue and minimizes the risk of infection.

This suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is not recommended for use in cardiovascular or neurological surgery, microsurgery, or ophthalmic surgery due to its specific absorption and strength characteristics. The suture’s monofilament surface provides an advantage over twisted Gut sutures by reducing tissue drag.

Caprosyn's monofilament structure contributes to its performance by minimizing tissue drag compared to traditional twisted sutures. This feature aids in smoother passage through the tissue, reducing trauma and improving overall surgical outcomes.
