The CP Medical Braided Natural Silk Non-Absorbable Sutures with Reverse Cutting Needles, 1/2 Circle are sterile surgical sutures for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures.
Composed of fibroin derived from domesticated species of B. Mori, CP Medical Silk Sutures ensures smooth flow through tissue and excellent knot security. While not absorbed, proteinaceous silk fiber exhibits progressive degradation. Due to gradual loss of tensile strength, silk surgical sutures are contraindicated in situations where permanent retention of tensile strength is required. CP Medical Silk Sutures are equivalent to Ethicon® Permahand Silk™, Look® /Sharpoint® Silk and Covidien® Sofsilk™.
CP Medical Silk Sutures are available in black, in various sizes. Size 3-0 is for closure of muscle layers or bowel repair; while 4-0 and 5-0 are great for larger vessel repair. They also feature reverse cutting needles, which are strong and sharp, with a reduced risk of cutout. Ideal for tough skin and tissue. Available in 12 per box. Proudly made in the USA.
