Polydioxanone Suture (Tomorrow’s Suture Today)

UNISYNTH PDS – Monofilament Polydioxanone Suture is prepared from the polyester, poly (p-dioxanone).

Indications:

Two important characteristics describe the in vivo performance of absorbable sutures first tensile strength retention and second the absorption rate (loss of mass).

UNISYNTH PDS suture is a synthetic absorbable suture that has been formulated to minimize the variability of these characteristics and to provide wound support through an extended healing period.

  • Where Delayed Wound Support required.
  • The surface is smooth as tissues; provide no tissue drag during suturing.
