Ethicon Johnson - Z1926G - PDS II Sutures USP 0, 1/2 Circle Taper Point CTX - Z1926G -12 Foils

This product is a synthetic absorbable surgical suture designed for use in medical and surgical procedures. It is constructed from a monofilament polydioxanone polymer, a material known for its strength and predictable absorption characteristics. The suture is provided in a USP 0 size, which corresponds to a diameter range of approximately 0.

30-0.35 mm. Each unit includes a 150 cm length of violet-colored suture material.

The suture is attached to a 48 mm needle featuring a 1/2 circle curvature and a taper point design. The needle is further enhanced with a CTX coating, intended to facilitate smoother tissue penetration and minimize tissue trauma during insertion. The product is supplied in foil packaging for sterility.

The tensile strength of this suture is characterized by a retention of approximately 70% at two weeks post-implantation, decreasing to 50% at four weeks, and further to 25% at six weeks. Its absorption profile indicates complete hydrolysis over a period of 180 to 210 days.
