Description:
Healthium PD Synth Suture 1‑0 is a sterile, synthetic, absorbable monofilament composed of polydioxanone (PDS). Engineered for extended wound support, it offers smooth tissue passage with minimal trauma and elicits minimal inflammatory response. Ideal for fascial and soft tissue approximation, it retains approximately 70 % tensile strength at two weeks, 50 % at four weeks, and 25 % at six weeks, with complete absorption occurring within 180–210 days. Clinical studies have demonstrated equivalence to established PDS sutures in abdominal fascia closure, with similar rates of incisional hernia, wound infection, and healing outcomes.
Key Features:
-
Monofilament polydioxanone construction – reduces tissue drag and inflammation for precise tissue approximation.
-
Extended tensile strength retention – approximately 70 % at 2 weeks; 50 % at 4 weeks; 25 % at 6 weeks.
-
Predictable hydrolytic absorption profile – absorbed within 180–210 days for gradual wound support.
-
Minimal inflammatory response – designed for use in patients with slower healing (e.g., chronic disease, elderly).
-
Broad surgical applications – suited for fascial closure, rectus sheath, pediatric cardiovascular, orthopedic, geriatric and general surgery.
