Description
Suturer-specifikationer: 4 – 1 – 90cm – 40mm – 1/2
Vetsuture PGLAPLUS is a sterile, absorbable, medium term,
braided suture composed of Polyglactin 910. It is coated
with Chlorhexidine, a broad spectrum antibacterial agent. It
is colored in Violet. It is absorbed by hydrolysis. Absorption
begins with loss of tensile strength followed by loss in mass.
80% of the original resistance to traction is maintained at
14 days. At the end of the 4th week 10% of the original force
remains. The suture is absorbed up to 10% in two weeks, 25%
after four weeks and 75% in two months. The absorption is
complete between 56 and 70 days. Vetsuture PGLAPLUS has
a very high tensile strength. Braided, it is flexible, easy to
use and knot security properties are excellent. The coating
improves the sliding of the suture and limits the saw effect. The
tissue reaction is very low. Vetsuture PGLAPLUS is indicated
for the approximation of tissues in general surgeries, to suture
muscle and fascia, walls, subcutaneous sutures and ligatures of
hemostasis.
