Suture Material: SurgiMac's Chromic Gut Suture, meticulously crafted from purified connective tissue, primarily collagen sourced from beef intestines' serosal layer, adheres to stringent United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) standards for absorbable surgical sutures. Its incorporation of a chromic salt solution effectively delays absorption, ensuring versatility across various surgical applications.
Characteristics: Renowned for reliability and performance, SurgiMac's Chromic Gut Suture boasts extended absorption kinetics, lasting over 90 days due to its chromium salt treatment. With a collagen content of 97%-98%, it offers exceptional tensile strength, prolonged absorption, and minimal tissue reactivity. Its smooth tissue passage and precise knot tying capabilities make it ideal for surgeons seeking efficiency and accuracy.
Indications: MacSuture 4/0 is suitable for general soft tissue approximation, ligation, and ophthalmic procedures. Adherence to recommended storage practices, avoidance of resterilization, and prevention of prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures are imperative. Surgeons should exercise caution, particularly in patients with conditions that may impede wound healing.
Precautions: Surgeons must handle the suture delicately to prevent damage, ensuring optimal knot security and adherence to proper suturing techniques. Patients with known hypersensitivity to collagen or chromium may experience adverse reactions, necessitating thorough preoperative assessment. Prolonged exposure to salt solutions may lead to calculus formation, highlighting the importance of vigilant postoperative care.
