Description

Suture, PDS Poly Violet 5-0 27 RB1 is a synthetic absorbable surgical thread made from polydioxanone (PDS), renowned for its high tensile strength and predictable absorption profile. This violet-colored suture is designed for precision in wound closure, particularly in procedures requiring fine tissue approximation. The RB1 needle configuration features a reverse cutting edge, which enhances tissue penetration and minimizes tissue trauma during suturing.

Polydioxanone is chosen for its biocompatibility and minimal tissue reactivity, reducing the risk of inflammation and promoting smooth tissue healing. The suture undergoes gradual hydrolysis within the body over approximately 180 to 210 days, maintaining wound support during the critical healing period. This absorption process eliminates the need for suture removal post-operatively, reducing patient discomfort and enhancing convenience for healthcare providers.

Suitable for a range of surgical disciplines, including dermatology, ophthalmology, and plastic surgery, the PDS Poly Violet 5-0 27 RB1 suture provides reliable closure of delicate tissues. It is sterilized to maintain integrity and packaged individually to ensure sterility until the moment of use.
