Product Overview
The Covidien CG-913 Absorbable Suture with Needle is a high-quality surgical suture designed for soft tissue approximation and ligation. Made from chromic gut, this suture offers excellent tensile strength and predictable absorption, making it ideal for procedures requiring moderate wound support.
Features:
- Absorbable Material: Chromic gut is treated for enhanced resistance to absorption, providing extended wound support compared to plain gut.
- Taper Point Needle: The 24 1/2 circle GS needle ensures precise, smooth penetration with minimal tissue trauma.
- Size 2-0: Suitable for a variety of surgical applications requiring medium tensile strength.
- Reliable Performance: Consistent knot security and handling for optimal surgical results.
Specifications:
- Material: Chromic Gut
- Needle Type: 24 1/2 Circle Taper Point (GS)
- Size: 2-0
- Length: Standard suture length
- Absorption Rate: Typically absorbed within 21-28 days
Use Suggestion:
This suture is commonly used in general soft tissue closure, including subcutaneous and mucosal tissues. It is particularly effective in gynecological, urological, and ophthalmic procedures where extended wound support is needed before natural absorption occurs. Always follow standard surgical protocols for suture placement and knotting techniques.
For optimal performance, store in a cool, dry place and avoid exposure to excessive heat or moisture.
