Description:
Healthium PD Synth Suture 4‑0 is a sterile, synthetic absorbable monofilament suture composed of polydioxanone, ideal for delicate soft tissue approximation and closure in environments requiring minimal tissue reaction. Engineered for smooth tissue passage with low drag, it offers extended tensile strength support—retaining ~70 % at two weeks, ~50 % at four weeks, and ~25 % at six weeks—while undergoing complete hydrolytic absorption within 180–210 days. Available in dark violet, sterilized via ethylene oxide with a five‑year shelf life, it is suited for applications in general, orthopedic, pediatric cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, fascia, and geriatric surgeries, especially in patients with slower healing capacity such as chronic disease or diabetic individuals.
Key Features:
-
Monofilament polydioxanone construction – ensures minimal tissue drag and inflammation.
-
Superior extended tensile strength – retains ~70 % strength at 2 weeks, ~50 % at 4 weeks, ~25 % at 6 weeks.
-
Predictable, slow hydrolytic absorption – fully absorbed within 180–210 days.
-
Minimal tissue reactivity – engineered for low inflammation, ideal for chronically ill or elderly patients.
-
Wide surgical applicability – optimal for fascial closure, rectus sheath, gastrointestinal, orthopedic, pediatric cardiovascular, geriatric, and general surgical indications.
