Features

DemeTech PGR suture is a synthetic, absorbable, sterile, surgical suture composed of copolymers made from 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide. DemeTech PGR is able to achieve a faster absorption period more than any other synthetic absorbable due to the lower molecular weight relative to Polyglactin 910.

Clinical trials have shown that 75% of the initial tensile remained after 2weeks and post implantation approximately 0% of the linear tensile strength remained after 4weeks.

 

Characteristics of DemeTech Rapid Absorbable Sutures include:

  • Easy passage with minimal drag
  • Precise knot placement and smooth tie down
  • Greater tensile strength
  • Decreased tendency to irritate tissue
  • A faster absorption period between 42-58 days
  • Available in violet colour and colourless
