Surgical Suture

Absorbable surgical sutures are another major application of biodegradable polymers.  Fibers of these biodegradable materials such as PGA, PLA, PCL are usually used to produce absorbable surgical sutures, which lose their tensile strength within a certain period of time after being implanted in the body and are decomposed by the hydrolysis process.
In other words, absorbable suture is a type of surgical suture that disappears over time and is naturally decomposed and absorbed by the body.
During hydrolysis process, water penetrates into the sutures and breaks down its polymer structure; Therefore, there is no need to visit a doctor to remove the stitches.
Choosing absorbable polymers in the production of surgical suture is due to their enjoying characteristics such as the lowest coefficient of friction, the best adhesion performance, and easy sliding with the lowest frictional fluctuations. Absorbable surgical suture has advantages such as reducing the recovery time so the patient can come back to normal activities sooner, reducing the risk of infection and there is no need to remove sutures. Another important feature is that the material of absorbable suture should not cause any allergic or inflammatory reactions in the body.
Absorbable surgical suture includes materials such as polyglycolide, polylactide, caprolactone and a combination of these materials. They are usually used for internal body gaps such as tissue and muscle gaps.

Surgery is one of the branches of medical science that treats patients using tools and equipment. The history of surgery goes back thousands of years.

<p style="text-align: justify;">
Polyglycolic acid-rapid absorbable suture (PGA Rapid) is an absorbable synthetic surgical suture, the coating of this type of suture with calcium stearate and polycaprolactone prevents bleeding and allows the needle to slide easily without damage during tying. PGA rapid absorbency has the rapid property, which means the initial tensile strength of this thread degrades faster than conventional polyglycolic acid sutures. This feature allows the suture to be removed more quickly and reduces the chance of scarring.
The multi-strand design of this suture gives it a strong and flexible texture and makes it more resistant to breakage. PGA Rapid surgical suture has the ability to maintain 45% of tissue support in 7 days and has the fastest performance compared to other sutures designed to simulate the function of collagen.
