Description

Monocryl Coated Suture, 4-0, PS-2, 30 cm, is a synthetic absorbable monofilament suture composed of poliglecaprone 25. The coating enhances smooth passage through tissue, reducing drag and minimizing tissue trauma during suturing. Its undyed appearance allows for discreet use in superficial and cosmetic procedures, supporting improved aesthetic outcomes.

The suture features excellent handling properties and knot security, enabling precise tissue approximation. The PS-2 needle, a precision reverse cutting needle with a 3/8 circle curvature, facilitates accurate needle placement with minimal tissue resistance. This combination supports efficient and reliable wound closure across various surgical applications.

Monocryl Coated maintains tensile strength for 1 to 2 weeks, providing necessary wound support during early healing phases. It undergoes hydrolytic absorption, with complete degradation occurring between 90 and 120 days. This absorption timeline reduces the need for suture removal and promotes patient comfort by eliminating residual foreign material.
