Fast PGA Absorbable Sutures Finalis

PGA RAPID Finalis sutures are synthetic, absorbable, braided, sterile surgical sutures composed of polyglycolic acid (PGA). The empirical formula of the polymer is (C2H2O2)n. The characteristic rapid decrease in strength is achieved by using a polymer material with a lower molecular weight than that of conventional PGA suture material. PGA RAPID Finalis sutures are coated with polycaprolactone and calcium stearate. PGA RAPID Finalis sutures are available in various gauges and thread lengths. They comply with the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia for "Sutures, sterile, synthetic, absorbable, braided" and those of the US Pharmacopoeia for "Absorbable surgical sutures."

Key features and benefits 

Good tensile strength. 

Knot security: With good knot security, these sutures ensure that your patients' wounds remain securely closed, promoting rapid healing. 

Predictable absorption rate: Finalis fast PGA sutures have a predictable absorption rate, ensuring that the sutures dissolve naturally over time, minimizing the need for suture removal procedures and ensuring reliable healing time. 

By using these sutures, you can confidently provide secure wound closure, minimizing the risk of complications and promoting rapid healing. The high tensile strength and knot security of Finalis sutures give you peace of mind during critical procedures. 

FAQ

Q1: How long does it take for Finalis fast PGA absorbable sutures to dissolve completely?

A1: The gradual decrease in tensile strength and final resorption of PGLA sutures occurs through hydrolysis, where the copolymer is broken down into glycolic and lactic acids and is ultimately absorbed and eliminated by the body. Resorption begins with a decrease in tensile strength, followed by a decrease in volume. The rate of resorption of Finalis sutures is predictable; however, the exact time may vary depending on the individual patient's healing process.
