Product Overview
The Surgical Specialties Quill Knotless Tissue-Closure Device (RA-1030Q-0) is an absorbable barbed monofilament suture designed for secure wound closure without the need for knots. Made from polydioxanone (PDO), this suture provides strong tissue support while gradually absorbing over time. The 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle ensures precise placement with minimal trauma.
Features:
- Knotless design eliminates the need for tying, reducing surgical time and improving efficiency.
- Barbed monofilament enhances tissue grip, distributing tension evenly along the suture line.
- Absorbable PDO material maintains strength during critical healing phases before gradual absorption.
- Precision reverse cutting needle allows smooth penetration and reduced tissue drag.
Specifications:
- Material: Polydioxanone (PDO)
- Needle Type: 3/8 circle reverse cutting
- Suture Size: 0
- Absorption Profile: Long-term absorption (retains strength for ~6 weeks, fully absorbed in ~6 months)
- Length: Standard suture length (varies by packaging)
Use Suggestion:
Ideal for dermal and soft tissue closure in plastic, general, and orthopedic surgeries. Suitable for procedures requiring prolonged wound support, such as fascial closure, tendon repair, and layered tissue approximation. Ensure proper technique by following manufacturer guidelines for optimal barb engagement and tissue approximation.
