1 BIOSYN BIOSYN SUTURE SUTURE

2 BIOSYN SUTURE Description Characteristics Indications Contraindications Actions Tensile Strength Absorption Sterilization Packaging BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures are prepared from a synthetic polyester, GLYCOER 631, composed of glycolide (60%), dioxanone (14%) and trimethylene carbonate (26%). The adanced extrusion process of the molecule of GYLCOER 631 gies the suture: Excellent initial strength Excellent in-io strength oer the critical wound healing period Excellent knot security inimal memory for handling ease BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation including use in ophthalmic surgery, but not for use in cardioascular or neurological surgery. This suture, being absorbable, should not be used where extended approximation of tissue is required. BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures elicit a minimal acute inflammatory reaction in tissues, followed by gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connectie tissue. Progressie loss of tensile strength and eentual absorption of BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures occurs by means of hydrolysis, where the suture is broken down to glycolic acid, dioxanoic acid, propane diol and carbon dioxide which are subsequently absorbed and metabolized by the body. Subcutaneous tissue implantation studies in rats indicate tensile strength for BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures is approximately 75% of and EP minimum knot strength at two weeks and approximately 40% at three weeks post-implant. Absorption begins as a loss of tensile strength without appreciable loss of mass. Absorption of BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures is essentially complete between 90 and 110 days. Ethylene oxide BIOSYN synthetic absorbable sutures are aailable in and EP sizes 1 (4 metric) through 6-0 (0.7 metric). They are aailable undyed (natural) or dyed (iolet). The sutures are supplied sterile, in pre-cut lengths or ligating reels; non-needled or affixed to arious needle types, using both permanent and remoable needle attachment techniques; in one, two or three dozen boxes.
