Meril Filamide Suture 8-0 - NYL80 3708 Pack of 12

Filamide is a non-absorbable synthetic monofilament suture made of polyamide 6 and polyamide 6.6. Its smooth surface ensures minimal tissue trauma during passage, making it ideal for delicate ophthalmic tissue where precision and reduced reactivity are critical for patient comfort and surgical outcomes.

Yes, Filamide Suture is supplied sterile and is intended for single-use in surgical applications. Each pack is sterilized to ensure safety and efficacy for direct use in approximation and ligation procedures across skin, soft tissue, vascular, and ophthalmic applications.

Filamide offers exceptional knot security combined with flexibility and ease of handling and tying. Its smooth passage through tissue reduces operative time and tissue trauma, making it reliable for surgeons performing diverse procedures from dermatological to cardiovascular applications.

As a non-absorbable suture, Filamide maintains its structural integrity indefinitely, providing prolonged tissue support ideal for procedures requiring permanent wound closure. This durability ensures consistent performance and sustained approximation over extended healing periods.

Filamide is indicated for approximation and ligation of skin tissue, general soft tissue, vascular tissue, and ophthalmic tissue. Its excellent histocompatibility and reduced tissue reactivity make it versatile across dermatological, cardiovascular, general, and ophthalmic surgical specialties.

Polyamide sutures combine exceptional tensile strength with a smooth surface that minimizes vessel wall trauma during placement and removal. These properties, combined with reduced tissue reactivity and consistent performance, make polyamide a reliable choice for maintaining vascular integrity in cardiovascular procedures.
