Manufactured from Polysorb, a copolymer of glycolide and lactide, it provides a reliable, high-tensile strength that supports wound closure during the critical healing period. With its slow absorption profile, this suture is particularly useful for tissues that require longer healing times, such as in abdominal surgery, gynecological procedures, or orthopedic soft tissue repair. The violet color aids in easy identification during surgery and provides better visibility, reducing the chance of errors or confusion when working with different types of sutures. The suture’s absorbable nature means that it is designed to be naturally broken down and absorbed by the body over time, eliminating the need for suture removal once the tissue has sufficiently healed. It offers a controlled rate of absorption, which is essential for tissues that need more extended support during the healing process. The pre-cut format of the suture, with each strand measuring 12X18 inches, allows for flexibility in surgical application. Surgeons can easily adapt the suture length to the specific requirements of the procedure, whether for use in suturing delicate tissues or for more robust tissue layers that require additional support. The Covidien L-27 Polysorb Violet Pre-Cut Suture comes in boxes of 24, with each suture provided in sterile, single-use packaging to ensure safety and prevent infection. This packaging format helps optimize inventory management, especially in high-volume environments such as hospitals, surgical centers, or outpatient surgery facilities. The Polysorb suture is highly favored for its versatility, strength, and predictable absorption, making it an ideal choice for surgical repairs that demand both precision and long-lasting support during the healing process.
