Product Description

Introduction to COVIDIEN V LOC SUTURE 326: The COVIDIEN V LOC SUTURE 326 is a type of absorbable wound closure suture designed for soft tissue approximation. It is part of the V-Loc family of sutures, which are known for their unidirectional barbs that provide a precise grasp of the tissue, allowing for proper distribution of tension across the wound.

• Key Features: The COVIDIEN V LOC SUTURE 326 is made of a synthetic polyester material and has a unique barb and loop design that accelerates closure by removing the need to tie any knots, thus saving time during procedures.
• Suture Specifications: Although specific details about the COVIDIEN V LOC SUTURE 326 are not provided, V-Loc sutures generally come in various lengths and sizes, and their absorption profiles can vary, with some having a tensile strength of 80% at 7 days, 75% at 14 days, and 65% at 21 days.
• Applications: These sutures are great choices for soft tissue approximation in various surgical specialties, including gynecology, general surgery, bariatric surgery, and colorectal surgery, where absorbable sutures are required.
• Benefits: The use of COVIDIEN V LOC SUTURE 326 can reduce the challenge of maintaining adequate tension of the suture strength and can be operated with one hand, even in tight spaces, making it a convenient option for surgeons.
