Identifying Improved Polyamide Nylon Bandages with Accurate Absorption Management


Posted January 3, 2024 by Orionsutures

Significant developments in the medical device sector have improved patient outcomes. Surgical sutures are one field where innovation has had a significant positive impact.
 
Orion Sutures, a top producer of medical sutures, is happy to provide the details of their most recent advancement in this area: a surgical suture made of improved polyamide nylon that has absorbable qualities.

19th December 2023, Karnataka: Since the early days of using silk and catgut for sutures, a lot has changed. These conventional materials performed their function, but they had drawbacks, such as causing irritation or needing to be removed. A portion of these problems were resolved with the development of synthetic absorbable sutures. Still, there was potential for improvement. In several instances, absorbable synthetic sutures deteriorated too quickly and had to be removed during a second operation. However, the need to surgically remove non-absorbable synthetic sutures like nylon increased the danger of infection or damage to the healing tissues.

The R&D team at Orion Sutures put in a lot of effort to create a new suture material that addressed the drawbacks of both absorbable and non-absorbable sutures individually while combining the best of both. By utilizing advancements in material science and polymer engineering in conjunction with nylon's tensile strength and handling properties, they have developed an improved polyamide nylon surgical sutures that has a predetermined absorption profile.

These sutures hold over 80% of their strength for three weeks, according to extensive in-vitro and in-vivo testing. It is enough time for the majority of surgical incisions and wounds to heal. After this, the body's normal biochemical mechanisms start to disintegrate the sutures in a predictable and controlled manner. They completely sink into the body as innocuous amino acids and carbon dioxide in 8 to 12 weeks, negating the need for removal surgery.

In contrast to conventional synthetic absorbable sutures, the surgical site can be used to precisely customize the absorption duration. When applied subcutaneously, these sutures may last only 2-3 weeks, but when used internally, they may last 4-6 weeks. Depending on the particular use, such as tying knots in high-tension regions or simulating low-stress tissues, their absorption qualities can also be changed. Its unparalleled adaptability enables the best possible wound care in a multitude of applications.

Physicians value these sutures because they handle smoothly and supplely, much like non-absorbable nylon. Their ability to maintain their knot during absorption stops dehiscence or unsuccessful wound apposition. Most notably, preliminary clinical use suggests that they cause a relatively minimal foreign body reaction, which reduces scarring and post-operative pain. In comparison to other absorbable synthetic alternatives, the incidence of problems is also much lower.

Orion Sutures has created upgraded polyamide nylon sutures, which are genuinely revolutionary. To overcome the drawbacks of conventional suture materials, they integrate the finest elements of absorbable and non-absorbable technology. They guarantee the best strength retention and prompt disintegration thanks to their tailored degradation duration and programmed absorption profile. According to early feedback from surgeons, they offer better handling, lessen inflammation, and need fewer removal procedures, all of which lead to better patient outcomes.
