Silk Braided Silicon Coated Sutures
International Quality Black
Braided Silicon coated Silk Suture.
Virtues
Virtues
- The finest quality braided natural silk for the ultimate in handling and knot security.
- Silk is degummed to the highest level to eliminate all toxic elements for the maximum safety and reliability.
- Silk is dyed with non-irritant and non-toxic colors. It is colored black for higher visibility during surgery and has least memory. Its modern braiding techniques provide a uniform, smooth and a greater tensile strength than the prescribed USP limits.
Material
Silk Surgical Suture is coated
with specially developed silicon for extra smooth surface like
monofilament, which allows easy passage through the tissue and non
capillary action.
Tissue Reaction
Silk Surgical Suture elicits
minimal acute inflammatory reactions in tissues, which is followed by
gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissue. While
Silk suture is not absorbed, progressive degradation of the
proteinaceous silk fiber in vivo may result in gradual loss of the
suture's tensile strength over time.
Cautions
The use of this suture is
contraindicated in patients with known sensitivities or allergies to
silk. Due to the gradual loss of tensile strength, which may occur over
prolonged periods in vivo, Silk suture should not be used where
permanent retention of tensile strength is required.
Application
Indicated for use in
Cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological procedures and also in
general, soft tissue approximation and / or ligation
Choice
Silk Surgical Suture is
available in USP sizes 6/0 through 1 supplied Sterile in precut lengths
non needled and affixed to various types of atraumatic channel needles
in one dozen boxes, also non sterile on spools of 25 mtrs in container
of 6 spools.
Warnings
In case of Non Sterile Spools
repeated and prolonged sterilization should be avoided for superior
performance.
Sterilization
Silk Surgical Suture is
sterilized by Gamma Radiation.
