Description

The Polysyn 2-0 Violet Suture is a synthetic, absorbable surgical suture designed for secure and efficient wound closure. Composed of a polyglycolic acid-based copolymer, it provides predictable absorption and optimal tensile strength retention during the critical healing period. The violet coloration enhances visibility in the surgical field, allowing for precise placement and improved handling.

Equipped with a SH Taper Point Needle, this suture is designed for atraumatic penetration through soft tissues. The tapered tip allows for precise suturing without excessive tissue disruption, making it particularly suitable for internal suturing applications. With a 27-inch suture length, it offers sufficient material for secure closures while maintaining ease of manipulation.

The Polysyn 2-0 suture retains 50% of its tensile strength at two weeks and 20% at three weeks, providing adequate support as the wound heals. Complete mass absorption occurs within 50 to 90 days, eliminating the need for suture removal. This gradual absorption process facilitates tissue regeneration and reduces the risk of prolonged foreign body reactions, promoting optimal healing outcomes.
