Description

The PDS II Violet Monofilament Suture, Size 0, 27", equipped with a CP-2 needle, is engineered for precision and reliability in surgical procedures requiring durable and high-performance suturing. Made from polydioxanone, this suture offers exceptional strength retention and minimal tissue reactivity.

The suture maintains approximately 80% of its tensile strength at two weeks, 70% at four weeks, and 60% at six weeks, providing adequate support for wound healing while gradually being absorbed by the body. This progressive loss of tensile strength allows for natural tissue repair without the need for suture removal, making it suitable for internal tissues and procedures where long-term support is essential.

The CP-2 needle features a reverse cutting design, which enhances precision and control during tissue penetration. This needle type minimizes tissue trauma and ensures secure and accurate suturing, contributing to better overall surgical outcomes.
