Suture Material: SurgiMac's Chromic Gut Suture is a sterile surgical suture meticulously crafted from purified connective tissue, primarily collagen, sourced from beef intestines' serosal layer. Meeting stringent United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) standards for absorbable surgical sutures, it incorporates a chromic salt solution to effectively delay absorption, enhancing its utility across various surgical procedures.
Characteristics: Distinguished by superior performance and reliability, SurgiMac's Chromic Gut Suture offers extended absorption kinetics, courtesy of its chromium salt treatment, lasting over 90 days. With a collagen content of 97%-98%, it boasts exceptional tensile strength, prolonged absorption, and minimal tissue reactivity. Its smooth tissue passage and effortless knot tying capabilities make it an ideal choice for surgeons seeking precision and efficiency.
Indications: MacSuture 5/0 is indicated 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 impair 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, warranting thorough preoperative assessment. Additionally, prolonged exposure to salt solutions may lead to calculus formation, emphasizing the need for vigilant postoperative care.
