Description

Overview
  • Premisut UHMWPE suture is a sterile synthetic multifilament braided non-absorbable surgical suture prepared from fibers of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene.
  • The braided suture is composed of dyed and undyed UHMWPE fibers; dyed fibers are black, using carbon black.
  • Available as flat/tape braided and round braided constructs, with flat/tape widths typically ranging from 1 mm to 6 mm.


Intended use
  • Intended for soft tissue approximation and/or ligation in general surgical procedures.
  • Can be incorporated into constructs with allograft or autograft tissues for repair applications.


Material & construction
  • Material: Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers.
  • Multifilament braided construction for enhanced handling and knot stability; available in flat/tape and round forms.
  • Options include dyed (black) and undyed fibers; black dye achieved using carbon black.


Clinical & biological properties
  • Braided design permits secure knotting and reliable tissue approximation.
  • Elicits minimal initial inflammatory response followed by fibrous encapsulation.
  • Non-absorbable and resistant to enzymatic degradation; maintains long-term mechanical integrity.


Availability & variations
  • Flat/tape width range typically 1 mm to 6 mm; round constructs available in corresponding sizes.
  • Technical specifics such as coating, tensile strength, needle type and packaging may vary by market or customer requirement.


Technical specifications
  • Material: UHMWPE fibers.
  • Type: Sterile, synthetic, multifilament braided, non-absorbable surgical suture.
  • Colour: Dyed (black) and undyed options; dyed fibers use carbon black.
  • Constructs: Flat/tape braided and round braided.
  • Flat/tape width: 1 mm–6 mm (typical range).
  • Clinical use: Soft tissue approximation and ligation; compatible with constructs using allograft/autograft tissues.
  • Knot security: Braided design for secure knots.
  • Biostability: Non-absorbable; resistant to enzymatic degradation; minimal initial inflammatory response followed by encapsulation.
  • Market variations: Coating, tensile strength, needle composition and packaging may differ by market.
