Description

Quill Barbed Suture, Monoderm, 3-0, Undyed, 30X30cm, PS-2 is a bidirectional, barbed, absorbable monofilament suture designed for precise tissue approximation and secure wound closure. The monofilament structure ensures smooth passage through tissue while minimizing trauma and inflammation. The undyed configuration enhances visibility in certain surgical applications, particularly where subtle contrast is preferred.

Equipped with a PS-2 precision reverse cutting needle, the suture is designed to penetrate tough or dense tissues with minimal resistance. The 3/8 circle, 19mm needle configuration allows for precise suturing in confined surgical fields. The precision reverse cutting edge enhances sharpness, ensuring consistent performance during tissue penetration while reducing the risk of needle deformation.

The Quill™ bidirectional barb design enables two surgeons to work on a single closure simultaneously, potentially increasing procedural efficiency. The absence of knots reduces complications associated with knot security and bulk, leading to better wound healing outcomes. This suture is particularly useful in plastic, orthopedic, and soft tissue surgeries where controlled tension distribution is necessary.

This synthetic absorbable monofilament has excellent pliability and handling characteristics. At 7 days it retains 42 – 76% tensile strength, 36 – 52% at 14 days and is essentially absorbed at 90 days. These characteristics make it very popular for subcuticular closure and soft tissue approximation. Available in undyed/clear or violet.
