A type of needle with a triangular cross-section that cuts through tissue, used primarily in skin or dense tissue.

A characteristic that defines how easily a needle can pierce through tissue, important for minimizing trauma.

A synthetic non-absorbable suture used for its high strength and minimal tissue drag, suitable for orthopedic and neurological applications.

A non-absorbable synthetic suture resistant to biodegradation, often used in vascular procedures due to its inert properties.

A monofilament synthetic absorbable suture, known for its extended wound support and minimal tissue reaction.

A braided synthetic absorbable suture, used in a wide range of soft tissue approximation and ligation, including ophthalmic surgery.

An absorbable suture with clear monofilament, causes minimal tissue reaction, used when visibility is important.

A natural absorbable suture made from the intestine of sheep, rapidly absorbed and used for short-term wound support.

A synthetic absorbable suture with good holding strength and minimal tissue reaction, used in general soft tissue approximation.

A flat needle with a side cutting edge, designed for ophthalmic surgeries to avoid penetrating the lens or retina.

A synthetic non-absorbable monofilament suture with excellent tensile strength and low tissue reactivity, often used in cardiovascular surgery.

A non-absorbable suture with a smooth coating to reduce tissue drag, with high pliability and excellent knot security.

An absorbable synthetic monofilament suture that maintains tensile strength and exhibits minimal tissue reaction.

A type of suture with barbs that lock into tissue, offering knotless wound closure and even tension distribution.

A non-absorbable synthetic suture known for high tensile strength and low tissue reactivity, often used in cardiac surgery.

A type of suture that is broken down and absorbed by the body over time, commonly used for internal tissues.

A non-cutting needle with a rounded tip, used to reduce risk of needlestick injuries and for suturing friable tissues.

A single stranded suture that causes less tissue trauma but can be more difficult to handle.

A suture type that remains in the body indefinitely or is removed, often used for skin closure or in areas with low infection risk.

A needle type with a round body that transitions to a sharp point, causing less tissue trauma,, ideal for soft and delicate tissues.

A monofilament synthetic absorbable suture with high tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction, useful in orthopedics.

A suture coated with triclosan to inhibit bacterial growth, commonly used in procedures with a higher risk of infection.

A natural absorbable suture treated with chromic acid salts to resist rapid absorption, used in mucous membranes and internal structures.

A surgical instrument used to hold the needle while suturing, providing a better grip and control.

Small devices used to attach sutures to bones, providing secure tissue fixation particularly in orthopedic and sports medicine surgeries.

A non-absorbable natural fiber with excellent knot security and smooth passage through tissues, but can cause significant tissue reaction.

Allows for direct approach to the tissue, commonly used in easily accessible, shallow wounds.

Pre-looped sutures are used to reduce operating time and are particularly handy in difficult to reach surgical sites.

A multi-filament suture that has better knot security and is easier to handle, but can harbor bacteria.

Commonly used in surgery for deep wound closures, as the curve facilitates the stitching motion.

Has a cutting edge on the outer curvature which minimizes the risk of cutting through the tissue on pulling through.
