Product Overview
The Surgical Specialties Quill Knotless Tissue-Closure Device (RA-1067Q) is an absorbable barbed suture designed for secure, knotless tissue approximation. Made from polydioxanone (PDO), this monofilament suture features bidirectional barbs that evenly distribute tension, eliminating the need for traditional knot-tying. The 1/2 circle taper point needle (size 0) ensures precise placement with minimal tissue trauma.
Features:
- Knotless Design: Bidirectional barbs provide self-anchoring, reducing surgical time and improving wound stability.
- Absorbable Material: PDO monofilament offers extended wound support (absorption typically within 180 days).
- Taper Point Needle: Minimizes tissue damage with smooth penetration.
- Consistent Barb Spacing: Ensures uniform tissue hold and reduced slippage.
Specifications:
- Material: Polydioxanone (PDO)
- Needle Type: 1/2 circle, taper point
- Needle Size: 0
- Suture Length: Standard (exact length per manufacturer details)
- Absorption Profile: Full absorption within 6 months
Use Suggestion:
Ideal for plastic surgery, general soft tissue approximation, and wound closure where even tension distribution is critical. Suitable for procedures requiring prolonged wound support without suture removal. Ensure proper technique by following manufacturer guidelines for barbed suture placement.
