Trulon 4-0(1.5metric) Suture SN 3319PS

Composition

Polyglycolic acid (PGA) braided absorbable suture, size 4-0 (USP) / 1.5 metric; with needle (SN 3319PS)

Uses of Trulon 4-0(1.5metric) Suture SN 3319PS

Soft tissue approximation and/or ligation in general surgery; suitable for suturing subcutaneous tissue, mucosa and other tissues where an absorbable suture is indicated

• •Predictable absorption by hydrolysis
• •Good handling and knot security
• •Reduced need for suture removal
• •Suitable for soft tissue approximation and ligation
• •Minimal tissue reactivity compared to natural sutures

How it works

Polyglycolic acid is an absorbable synthetic suture that provides temporary wound support and is gradually broken down in the body by hydrolysis. Tensile strength reduces progressively as healing occurs and the suture is absorbed over time.

Directions for use

Use only by trained healthcare professionals. Select appropriate suture size/needle for tissue and tension required. Handle gently; avoid crushing/kinking. Use standard surgical knotting technique (typically additional throws for braided sutures) and follow institutional protocol.

Side effects

Common side effects of Trulon 4-0(1.5metric) Suture SN 3319PS may include:

• •Local tissue irritation
