3 decision Factors in working with us

​

Initial Tensile Strength

Initial tensile strength is the resistance of the surgical suture at the time of implantation. This resistance should be similar to the fabric in which it is used. Therefore, the surgeon must consider how long a tissue will need to heal and the forces exerted on the tissue (and, therefore, the sutures) during healing.

​

Security Knot

The safety of the knot is also an important factor, it tends to improve as the diameter decreases. However, the suture of a diameter too small will not be so strong in larger patients. The size of the veterinary surgical suture should be based on the tissue being stitched and on the size of the animal. The number of shots needed to make a secure knot also varies with each suture and pattern material (interrupted vs. continuous).

​

Suture Management

Multifilament veterinary surgical suture materials tend to be easier to flex, manipulate and knot compared to monofilament suture materials. The handling characteristics can be more important when choosing the ideal suture material for fine and coordinated procedures, such as microvascular surgery. Non-absorbable suture materials are usually less reactive than absorbable suture materials, but they will potentially remain permanently in the tissues. Multifilament suture materials are more prone to infection than monofilaments since they can harbor bacteria.
