Polyglycolic acid rapidly absorbable sutures (PGA Rapid) are synthetic, absorbable braided sutures coated with polycaprolactone and calcium stearate.
They ensure smooth passage through tissue, strong knots, and reliable absorption within 60-90 days. These sutures are designed for medical laboratory and clinical surgery, achieving an optimal balance between operability and healing efficiency.
● Rapid Absorption: Completely absorbed through hydrolysis within 2-3 months, leaving no residue.
● Smooth Knotting Properties: The polycaprolactone and calcium stearate coating ensures minimal resistance and strong nodule retention.
● Excellent Biocompatibility: Minimal inflammatory response, promoting healing.
● Versatile Applications: Suitable for clinical surgery and surgical training laboratories.
● Sterile and Reliable: Sterilized with ethylene oxide (EO), meeting clinical-grade safety standards.
