Absorbable synthetic braided thread.
Characteristics:
Due to its smooth coating, Polyglactin 910 thread has a minimal "sawing" effect and capillarity. Also, thanks to the coating, the polyglactin 910 thread easily passes through the tissues, securely holds the knot, is very convenient in manipulation, and has a longer resorption time. Polyglactin 910 is non-pyrogenic and causes minimal tissue reaction during the absorption period.
Application area:
The material is used for ligatures, soft tissue approximation in all areas of surgery, ophthalmology, gynecology and gastroenterology.
Contraindications:
Threads cannot be used where long-term tissue approximation is required. Not recommended for use in certain areas of cardiovascular and neurosurgery.
