Product Overview
The Surgical Specialties Quill Knotless Tissue-Closure Device Monoderm (YA-2033Q) is an absorbable barbed suture designed for secure, knotless wound closure. It features a 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle for smooth tissue penetration and is composed of Monoderm polyglycolic acid (PGA) and polycaprolactone (PCL), ensuring gradual absorption by hydrolysis. The barbed monofilament design eliminates the need for knots, distributing tension evenly across the wound for reduced scarring and improved healing.
Features:
- Knotless Closure: Barbed design eliminates traditional knot tying, saving time and improving efficiency.
- Absorbable Material: Monoderm PGA/PCL suture is hydrolytically absorbed, reducing the need for removal.
- Precision Needle: 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle enhances accuracy in tissue penetration.
- Even Tension Distribution: Barbs secure tissue layers uniformly, minimizing gaps and promoting healing.
- Monofilament Construction: Smooth, single-strand design reduces tissue drag and irritation.
Specifications:
- Suture Size: 3-0
- Needle Type: 3/8 circle reverse cutting
- Material: Monoderm PGA/PCL (absorbable)
- Length: Standard surgical suture length

Use Suggestion:
Ideal for dermal and soft tissue closure in general, plastic, and cosmetic surgery. Suitable for procedures requiring secure, knotless suturing, such as facial closures, abdominoplasty, and orthopedic soft tissue repair. Ensure proper tissue alignment before placement to maximize the barbed suture’s tension-distribution benefits.
