Ethicon PDS II Suture 4-0

Ethicon PDS II USP 4-0 is a monofilament, absorbable suture made from polydioxanone, offering extended wound support with gradual absorption. It maintains significant tensile strength for up to six weeks, making it ideal for internal tissues requiring prolonged healing time. The smooth monofilament structure ensures minimal tissue drag and reduced risk of bacterial colonization. Commonly used in soft tissue approximation, including fascia and subcutaneous closures.

Key Features:

• Monofilament polydioxanone for smooth passage and minimal tissue trauma.

• Extended tensile strength retention for up to 6 weeks.

• Absorbable by hydrolysis, fully absorbed in approximately 180 days.

• Low tissue reactivity, reducing the risk of inflammation.

• Ideal for internal soft tissue closures where prolonged support is needed.
