Benefits
-
Antibacterial Protection: Coated with triclosan, an antibacterial agent that helps reduce the risk of surgical site infections by inhibiting bacterial colonisation on the suture.
-
Long-lasting Absorbability: Made from Monocryl (Poliglecaprone 25), a monofilament suture known for its high tensile strength and absorbability. This material is absorbed by the body within 91-119 days, eliminating the need for suture removal.
-
High Tensile Strength: Provides strong and reliable wound closure, ensuring the wound remains securely approximated during the critical initial healing period.
-
Minimal Tissue Reaction: Being a monofilament suture, Monocryl causes minimal tissue reaction compared to braided sutures, reducing the likelihood of inflammation and infection.
-
Undyed Option: The undyed suture option reduces visibility in certain procedures, which can be beneficial for aesthetic reasons. Ideal for cosmetic or pediatric surgeries where minimal visibility is preferred.
