NOVOSYN UNDYED 3/0 (2) 70CM GS60 (M) DDP

NOVOSYN UNDYED 3/0 (2) 70CM GS60 (M) DDP - Advanced Synthetic Absorbable Suture for Aesthetic Closures

The NOVOSYN UNDYED 3/0 suture, manufactured by B. Braun, represents a cutting-edge solution for surgical wound closure, especially where minimal tissue reaction and aesthetic results are paramount. This synthetic absorbable monofilament suture is crafted from Glyconate (Poly (glycolide-co-caprolactone)), a biocompatible material known for its superior handling characteristics and predictable absorption profile.

Designed for smooth tissue passage and exceptional knot security, NOVOSYN UNDYED minimizes trauma during surgery and ensures reliable wound support throughout the critical healing period. Its undyed nature further reduces the potential for tissue staining, making it an ideal choice for subcutaneous and intracutaneous closures where cosmetic outcomes are a priority.

Key Benefits:

• High Initial Tensile Strength: Provides robust wound support during the crucial initial healing phase.
• Smooth Tissue Passage: The monofilament structure allows for easy and atraumatic passage through tissue, reducing drag.
• Excellent Knot Security: Ensures reliable and stable wound approximation with secure knotting properties.
• Predictable Absorption Profile: Offers consistent strength retention followed by complete absorption, typically within 90-120 days. Initial strength retention for approximately 14-21 days.
• Minimised Tissue Reaction: The undyed Glyconate material significantly reduces inflammatory response, promoting optimal healing.
• Ideal for Aesthetic Closures: Especially suited for skin and subcutaneous closures where cosmetic results are important, due to its lack of dye and smooth handling.

How to Use:

1. Preparation: Ensure the surgical site is sterile and prepared according to standard operating procedures.
2. Selection: Choose the appropriate suture size (3/0 USP) and needle (GS60 (M) DDP) for the specific tissue and anatomical location.
3. Handling: Handle the suture carefully to avoid damage to the material. Uncoil from the sterile package, ensuring sterility is maintained.
4. Suturing Technique: Employ standard surgical suturing techniques, ensuring proper tension and knot placement to achieve optimal wound approximation.
5. Knotting: Form secure surgical knots. The monofilament nature of NOVOSYN UNDYED requires adequate throws for security.
6. Disposal: Dispose of used sutures and packaging according to hospital waste management protocols.

Caution & Warnings:

• Sterility: This product is supplied sterile. Do not use if the package is opened or damaged.
• Single Use: NOVOSYN UNDYED sutures are for single use only. Do not re-sterilize or reuse.
• Proper Technique: Use by or under the direction of a qualified medical professional familiar with surgical techniques and suture selection.
• Wound Support: As an absorbable suture, it provides temporary wound support. The duration of support should be considered relative to the wound healing process.
• Tissue Reaction: While designed to minimize reaction, any foreign body in a wound can elicit a tissue response.
• Storage: Store at controlled room temperature, away from excessive heat and moisture, and in its original sterile packaging until use.
