Product Overview
The Quill™ Knotless Tissue-Closure Device (RA-1012Q-0) is an absorbable barbed suture designed for secure and efficient tissue closure without the need for knots. Made from polydioxanone (PDO), a biocompatible and absorbable material, this monofilament suture provides strong wound support while gradually absorbing over time. The 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle ensures smooth tissue penetration, reducing trauma during suturing.
Features:
- Knotless design eliminates the need for tying knots, saving time and improving efficiency.
- Barbed monofilament enhances tissue grip, distributing tension evenly along the suture line.
- Absorbable PDO material provides temporary wound support and degrades naturally in the body.
- Precision reverse cutting needle (size 4-0) offers optimal sharpness and control for delicate procedures.
Specifications:
- Material: Polydioxanone (PDO)
- Needle Type: 3/8 circle reverse cutting
- Needle Size: 4-0
- Suture Length: Standard (varies by packaging)
- Absorption Profile: Gradual absorption over 180 days
Use Suggestion:
Ideal for subcutaneous and intradermal closures in plastic, general, and orthopedic surgeries. The barbed design is particularly effective in approximating wound edges under tension, making it suitable for procedures where knot security and minimal tissue reaction are critical. Always follow proper surgical techniques and consult product guidelines for optimal use.
