PDSYNTH Polydioxanone Absorbable Surgical Suture USP 1 PDS 1

PDSYNTH Polydioxanone Absorbable Surgical Suture USP 1 is a sterile synthetic monofilament absorbable surgical suture designed for procedures requiring extended wound support and gradual absorption. The suture is manufactured from polydioxanone and has a monofilament structure that facilitates smooth passage through tissue. The material provides extended tensile support while being gradually absorbed through hydrolysis. Healthium documentation describes wound support for approximately 5–6 weeks, with absorption occurring within approximately 180–210 days. For the documented USP 1 configuration, the violet 90 cm suture is attached to a 40 mm 1/2-circle round-bodied needle, making it suitable for soft-tissue approximation and surgical closure where prolonged absorbable support is required.
