PDS II Absorbable Suture with Needle Uncoated TP-1 65 mm is a premium wound closure device designed to meet the rigorous demands of surgical procedures. This suture is made from the synthetic polymer polydioxanone, ensuring reliable and consistent performance. The violet-colored monofilament material offers exceptional tensile strength retention, with 80% at 2 weeks, 70% at 4 weeks, and 60% at 6 weeks, before a predictable absorption period sets in. The TP-1 taper point needle attached to the suture allows for smooth passage through tissue while minimizing tissue trauma, facilitating a smoother healing process.
