Poliglecaprone suture

239 devices · GMDN 45814

Poliglecaprone suture is a bioabsorbable, monofilament thread used to close soft-tissue wounds or ligate vessels by stitching or tying. It provides temporary wound support until healing occurs, then dissolves naturally over time without removal, making it ideal for internal or delicate external repairs where permanence isn’t required.

These sutures are single-use, sterile, and typically classified as surgical devices. They’re supplied pre-sterilized in sterile packaging, often with an attached needle for ease of use, and are regulated under medical device standards to ensure safety and efficacy in wound closure procedures.
