Featuring a reverse-cutting needle, this suture offers enhanced control and precision, making it ideal for use in delicate procedures where precision and minimal tissue damage are critical.

One of the standout features of PDS II sutures is their impressive strength retention profile. With 80% strength retention at 2 weeks, 70% at 4 weeks, and 60% at 6 weeks, these sutures provide reliable support during the critical healing period. Complete mass absorption occurs between 183 and 238 days, ensuring the suture material dissolves in a controlled manner without causing adverse reactions or complications.

PDS II sutures are particularly beneficial in surgeries where long-term wound support is needed, such as orthopedic or cardiovascular procedures. The violet color provides good visibility, aiding surgeons during delicate operations. This suture’s biocompatibility and absorption profile make it a preferred choice for healthcare professionals seeking reliable and effective solutions.
