Description

Maxon™ Suture, clear, size 4-0, 18", with C-13 needle, is a synthetic absorbable monofilament suture composed of polyglyconate—a copolymer of glycolic acid and trimethylene carbonate. This material provides prolonged tensile strength and predictable absorption, making it suitable for procedures requiring extended wound support with minimal tissue reaction.

The C-13 needle is a taper point design with a 3/8 circle curvature, suitable for delicate soft tissue closure. The 18-inch length provides sufficient reach for moderate-scale procedures. The clear color of the suture ensures minimal visibility in tissue, offering an aesthetic advantage in certain surgical applications.

Maxon™ sutures are indicated for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including pediatric cardiovascular and peripheral vascular surgeries where tissue growth is expected. They are not recommended for adult cardiovascular procedures, ophthalmic surgery, microsurgery, or neural tissue repair due to the specific demands of those tissue types.
