SUTURE *3
McKesson - S636GX
Device Description
A single-strand (monofilament), natural, bioabsorbable thread composed mostly of collagen fibres derived from mammals (e.g., sheep or bovine intestines), impregnated with chromium salts to increase tensile strength and retard absorption, intended to join (i.e., approximate) the edges of a soft-tissue wound or incision by stitching or to ligate soft tissues; it may include an attached disposable device(s) [e.g., needle, passer] intended to facilitate suture application. The thread provides temporary wound support, until the wound sufficiently heals to withstand normal stress, and is subsequently absorbed by enzymatic degradation. This is a single-use device.
