Clinical Notes
- Provides prolonged tensile strength retention compared to faster-absorbing sutures
- Smooth monofilament design reduces tissue trauma
- Predictable absorption profile via hydrolysis
- Suitable for internal soft tissue approximation where delayed absorption is advantageous
The Ethicon PDS* II Suture is a sterile, synthetic, absorbable polydioxanone (PDS) monofilament suture designed for extended wound support where prolonged tensile strength retention is required. Its violet monofilament construction promotes excellent visibility and smooth tissue passage while minimizing tissue drag and inflammatory response.
This suture is commonly selected for soft tissue approximation and ligation, including applications in general surgery, pediatric surgery, gastrointestinal closure, and other procedures requiring long-term absorbable support.
