Chirasorb PGA Rapid Braided Absorbable Sutures - Premium Sutures for Fast Efficient Healing

Chirasorb Rapid Braided Sutures are high-quality, short-term absorbable sutures made from braided, coated polyglycolic acid (PGA). As a PGA rapid absorbable suture, these polyglycolic acid sutures are engineered for fast, reliable healing, making them ideal for a range of soft tissue applications.

Key Features of Chirasorb Rapid PGA Sutures:

• Material Composition: Composed of 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide, this PGA suture material is non-antigenic and non-collagenous, minimizing tissue reactivity and promoting biocompatibility. The braided coated polyglycolic acid structure ensures a stable knot and provides strong tensile support while allowing for efficient handling during procedures.

• Absorption Method: This polyglycolic acid suture material undergoes a hydrolytic breakdown, with the polymer degrading into glycolic and lactic acids that are gradually absorbed and metabolized by the body, resulting in effective yet temporary wound support. This polyglycolic acid absorbable suture initiates strength loss as it begins to break down without an immediate loss of mass.

• Strength Retention Profile: Designed for short-term healing:

  • 1 Day: 100% tensile strength
  • 5 Days: 50% tensile strength
  • 10-14 Days: 0% tensile strength

     

Indications:

The Chirasorb Rapid PGA sutures are suitable for:

• Skin closure, including intracutaneous and subcutaneous procedures
• Pediatric surgeries
• Episiotomies and circumcision
• Closure of the oral mucosa in dental surgeries
• Ophthalmic procedures, specifically for conjunctival sutures

Contraindications:

Chirasorb Rapid Braided Sutures should not be used in tissues subject to stretching, expansion, or other mechanical stresses that may require long-term support, as these braided absorbable sutures are optimized for short-term tensile needs.
