Brand names are mentioned for reference only Material polymer: Polyglactin 910 (90% glycolide and 10% lactide) Structure: Multifilament, braided Suture type: Synthetic, Absorbable Coating: Polyglactin 370 (30% glycolide and 70% lactide) and calcium stearate Colour: Undyed Gauge sizes available: U.S.P. 6/0 to 0 Tensile strength retention: Days post implantation – 7 days - Approximate % of tensile strength retained – 45% Mass absorption: By hydrolysis. Absorption is essentially complete by 42 days. Sterilisation method: Ethylene oxide Indications: Q-close Synth Fast is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation where only short term wound support is required and where rapid absorption of the suture would be beneficial. Due to the rapid absorption profile, Q-close Synth Fast is useful for skin closure, particularly in paediatric surgery, episiotomies, circumcision and closure of oral mucosa. a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; }
