Product Overview
The Covidien CG-884 Absorbable Suture with Needle is a high-quality surgical suture designed for secure wound closure. Made from chromic gut, this suture provides excellent tensile strength and is naturally absorbed by the body over time, reducing the need for suture removal. The GS-22 1/2 circle taper point needle ensures precise and smooth tissue penetration, making it ideal for soft tissue approximation.
Features:
- Absorbable Material: Chromic gut is treated for enhanced strength and delayed absorption.
- Taper Point Needle: Minimizes tissue trauma with smooth penetration.
- 1/2 Circle Needle Design: Optimized for controlled suturing in confined spaces.
- Size 0 Suture: Provides reliable strength for general soft tissue closure.
Specifications:
- Material: Chromic Gut
- Needle Type: GS-22 (1/2 Circle, Taper Point)
- Suture Size: 0
- Absorption Rate: Gradually absorbed by enzymatic digestion.
- Sterile: Individually packaged for single-use safety.
Use Suggestion:
This suture is suitable for general soft tissue closure, including subcutaneous and mucosal layers. Its absorbable nature makes it particularly useful in areas where suture removal is impractical. Ensure proper surgical technique to minimize tissue reaction. Store in a dry, cool environment before use.
