Product Overview
The Quill Variable Loop Device - VLP-2010 is an absorbable barbed suture designed for secure wound closure in surgical procedures. Made from Polydioxanone (PDO), this monofilament suture provides reliable tensile strength and gradual absorption, minimizing tissue reaction. The 1/2 circle taper point needle (Size 2) ensures precise placement, while the barbed design eliminates the need for knots, reducing operative time and improving wound stability.
Features:
- Absorbable Material: Polydioxanone (PDO) offers extended wound support with absorption typically complete within 180 days.
- Barbed Monofilament: Self-anchoring barbs distribute tension evenly, promoting secure tissue approximation.
- 1/2 Circle Taper Point Needle: Sharp, precision-engineered for smooth tissue penetration.
- Variable Loop Technology: Adjustable loop design enhances flexibility in wound closure techniques.
Specifications:
- Suture Material: Polydioxanone (PDO)
- Needle Type: 1/2 Circle, Taper Point
- Needle Size: 2
- Configuration: Barbed Monofilament
- Absorption Profile: Fully absorbed within 6 months
Suggested Use:
Ideal for general soft tissue approximation, including fascial closure, plastic surgery, and orthopedic procedures. The barbed design is particularly effective in minimizing suture slippage and maintaining wound integrity without knot tying. Store in a dry, cool environment and use aseptically for optimal performance.
