ST Health™ Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) Suture is a sterile, synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture designed for secure tissue approximation and predictable wound support. Offering excellent handling, high tensile strength, and reliable absorption, it is ideal for general surgery, gynecology, orthopedics, gastrointestinal, and soft tissue closure procedures.
ST Health™ Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) Suture is a sterile, synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture designed for secure tissue approximation and predictable wound support. Offering excellent handling, high tensile strength, and reliable absorption, it is ideal for general surgery, gynecology, orthopedics, gastrointestinal, and soft tissue closure procedures.
The ST Health™ Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) Suture is engineered to provide dependable wound closure with predictable absorption and minimal tissue reaction. Manufactured from high-quality synthetic polyglycolic acid fibers, the braided suture is coated to ensure smooth tissue passage, excellent knot security, and easy handling during surgical procedures.
The absorbable design provides consistent tensile strength during the critical wound healing period before gradually being absorbed by the body through hydrolysis, eliminating the need for suture removal in most internal applications. Its excellent flexibility and secure knot performance make it suitable for a wide range of soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures.
Sterile and intended for single-use applications, the ST Health™ Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) Suture is available in multiple sizes and needle configurations to meet diverse surgical requirements in hospitals, surgical centers, and specialty healthcare facilities.
