Product Overview
The Surgical Specialties Quill Knotless Tissue-Closure Device, Monoderm (YA-2016Q) is an absorbable barbed suture designed for secure, knotless wound closure. It features a polyglycolic acid (PGA) / polycaprolactone (PCL) monofilament with bidirectional barbs that eliminate the need for traditional knot-tying, reducing operative time and improving tissue approximation. The included 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle ensures smooth penetration and precise placement in various surgical applications.
Key Features:
- Knotless design for faster wound closure and reduced risk of knot-related complications.
- Bidirectional barbs provide even tissue distribution and strong wound support.
- Absorbable material (PGA/PCL blend) offers consistent tensile strength during healing and gradual absorption.
- 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle enhances precision in confined surgical spaces.
- Size 3-0 suitable for multiple soft tissue approximation procedures.
