OPTIME® R sutures are intended for use in general soft tissue approximation including ophthalmic procedures, but not in cardiovascular or neurological procedures.

OPTIME®R sutures are intended to be used in suturing in open or laparoscopic surgery. These sutures are available with a disposable needle attachment. OPTIME®R is a sterile, multiple-stranded (multifilament), synthetic bioabsorbable thread made from a polymerization of polyglycolic acid (PGA) used in suturing when short-term support and rapid strength loss are needed. To perform suturing on soft tissue wounds involves a series of precise steps. The surgeon grasps the needle, pushes it through tissue, pulls it through and repeats for continuous suturing. Further, knots are tied, excess thread is cut, and used needles are single use and safely disposed in accordance with hospital procedure.

ADVANTIME® synthetic absorbable surgical sutures are intended for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, but not for use cardiovascular surgery, microsurgery, ophthalmic surgery, and neurological tissue.

ADVANTIME® sutures are intended to be used in suturing and/or tissue ligation in open or laparoscopic surgery. These sutures are available with a disposable needle attachment. ADVANTIME® is a single use, sterile, single-stranded (monofilament), synthetic bioabsorbable thread made of a poliglecaprone (a copolymer of glycolide and E- caprolactone of low tissue reactivity). Sutures are commonly used in digestive, urological, aesthetic, gynecological and intradermal surgery. To perform suturing on soft tissue wounds involves a series of precise steps. The surgeon grasps the needle, pushes it through tissue, pulls it through and repeats for continuous suturing. The same applies to double-armed needles. Further, knots are tied, excess thread is cut, and used needles are single use and safely disposed in accordance with hospital procedure.

StitchKit® Suture Delivery Canister facilitates minimally invasive robotic surgery by transporting suture to the operative field and removing used needles after suturing. The suture contained within the device is intended for soft tissue approximation where use of the specific absorbable or non-absorbable sutures contained within it is appropriate.

StitchKit® is a sterile, single-use plastic canister that is provided pre-loaded with suturing materials with attached needles. The device facilitates endoscopic robotic surgery by introducing multiple strands of suture to the surgical site at one time and allowing for the safe retrieval of the needles. The canister is sized to be passed through a ≥12 mm trocar or passed through an incision sized for an 8 mm trocar under direct endoscopic visualization. As suturing is completed with each strand, the used needle is placed into a compartment within the canister for safekeeping until the entire canister is removed either through the ≥ 12 mm trocar or through the 8mm trocar incision in tandem with the 8mm trocar, also under direct endoscopic visualization using the attached retrieval string. It is supplied sterile.

STRATAFIX™ Spiral MONOCRYL™ Plus Unidirectional Knotless Tissue Control Device is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation where the use of absorbable sutures is appropriate.

The STRATAFIX™ Spiral MONOCRYL™ Plus Unidirectional Knotless Tissue Control Device is an antibacterial monofilament, synthetic absorbable single-use surgical suture device composed of a copolymer of glycolide and (epsilon) s-caprolactone. The device contains IRGACARE®: MP (triclosan), a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent, at no more than 2360 ug/m. The colorant employed is D&C Violet No.2, in <0.050% w/w concentration. Poliglecaprone 25 copolymer has been found to be nonpyrogenic and elicits only a slight tissue reaction during absorption. The subject device is intended for professional use only. Same as the currently marketed undyed version, the subject device consists of a unidirectional barbed suture material, armed with a surgical needle on one end and an anchoring fixation loop at the opposite end. The barbs are oriented in one direction to allow tissue approximation without the need to tie surgical knots. While the formation of barbs in the subject STRATAFIX™ Spiral MONOCRYL™ Plus Unidirectional Device reduces the tensile strength relative to non-barbed suture material of the same size, tying of knots in non-barbed suture materials also reduces their effective strength. For this reason, the strength of the STRATAFIX™ Spiral MONOCRYL™ Plus Unidirectional Device can be compared to USP knot strength of non-barbed sutures. The actual diameter of the non-barbed section fiber is one size greater than the designated size with a maximum overage of 0.1 mm. The subject device is sterilized by Ethylene Oxide, and is available in lengths of 6, 9, and 12 inches, with a USP diameter size 2-0 and 3-0 (metric sizes 3.0 and 2.0), and single armed with various needle sizes.

MONOFIX PGCL, knotless wound closure device is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation where the use of absorbable suture is appropriate. MONOFIX PGCL, knotless wound closure device should not be used to approximate tissue under tension and the use of barbed suture has not been shown to be safe in the closure of hernias, laparotomy incisions, bowel anastomosis or suture lines, vascular suture lines, and vaginal cuff closure in controlled clinical or preclinical studies for minimally invasive or open surgery.

MONOFIX PGCL, knotless wound closure device, comprised of Poly(glycolide-co-carprolactone)(PGA-PCL) is a synthetic absorbable monofilament undyed-suture. It is available sterile, developed by Samyang Holdings Corp., Ltd. The MONOFIX PGCL, knotless wound closure device consists of a Barb-type suture and a surgical needle, with a suture at one end and a stopper shaped end for tissue anchoring at the stopper is attached to the end of the suture and has a triangular shape with one side length of 1.8 to 3.3 mm and a thickness of 0.7 to 1.0 mm. The device is designed with small uni-directional barbs in size 0.18-0.55 mm along the length and stopper that eliminate the need to tie knots during approximation. The device is available in lengths of 15 to 60cm and diameter sizes 1 through 3-0 with needles in 1/2 circle, 5/8 circle, 1/2 curved and straight shapes attached to each end.

StitchKit® Suture Delivery Canister facilitates minimally invasive robotic surgery by transporting suture to the operative field and removing used needles after suturing. The suture contained within the device is intended for soft tissue approximation where use of the specific absorbable or non-absorbable sutures contained within it is appropriate.

StitchKit® is a suture delivery canister which facilitates endoscopic robotic surgery by introducing multiple strands of different suturing materials to the surgical site at one time and allowing for the safe retrieval of the needles.
