Product Overview
The Quill Knotless Tissue-Closure Device Monoderm (YA-1012Q) is an absorbable barbed suture designed for secure and efficient wound closure without the need for knots. It features a Monoderm™ polyglycolic acid (PGA) / polycaprolactone (PCL) monofilament with bidirectional barbs, ensuring even tissue approximation and reduced slippage. The included 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle (size 2-0) enhances precision during suturing, making it ideal for soft tissue approximation in various surgical applications.
Key Features:
- Knotless design eliminates the need for tying knots, saving time and reducing foreign body reaction.
- Bidirectional barbs provide consistent tissue hold and minimize tension gaps.
- Absorbable material (PGA/PCL blend) offers extended wound support with gradual absorption.
- 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle ensures precise penetration and reduced tissue trauma.
Specifications:
- Suture Material: Monoderm™ PGA/PCL monofilament (absorbable).
- Needle Type: 3/8 circle reverse cutting.
- Needle Size: 2-0.
- Barb Type: Bidirectional.
- Absorption Profile: Gradual hydrolysis over weeks to months.
Suggested Use:
This device is suitable for general soft tissue closure, including plastic surgery, dermatology, and orthopedic procedures. Its knotless design simplifies suturing in areas where knot security is challenging, such as deep tissue layers or cosmetic closures. Ensure proper tissue alignment before deployment for optimal results.
