Application of Medical Alloy used on Sutures needles
To make a better needle, and then a better experiences while surgeons apply sutures in the surgery. Engineers in the medical device industrial tried to make the needle sharper, stronger and safer in the past decades. The goal is to develop a sutures needles with the strongest performance, sharpest no matter how many penetrations to be done, most safe that never broken the tip and the body during the passing through tissues. Almost every major grade of alloy was tested the application on sutu... -

Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene
Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. Also known as high-modulus polyethylene, it has extremely long chains, with a molecular mass usually between 3.5 and 7.5 million amu. The longer chain serves to transfer load more effectively to the polymer backbone by strengthening intermolecular interactions. This results in a very tough material, with the highest impact strength of any thermoplastic presently made. WEGO UHWM Characteristics UHMW (ultra... -
Polyester Sutures and tapes
Polyester suture is a multifilament braided non-absorbable, sterile surgical suture which is available in green and white. Polyester is a category of polymers which contain the ester functional group in their main chain. Although there are many polyesters, the term “polyester” as a specific material most commonly refers to polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Polyesters include naturally occurring chemicals, such as in the cutin of plant cuticles, as well as synthetics through step-growth polyme... -

Babred sutures for Endoscopic surgery
Knotting is the last procedure of the wound closure by suturing. Surgeons always need continues practice to keep the ability, especially the monofilament sutures. Knot security is one of the challenge of the successful wound close, since so many factors effected including the less or more knots, non-conformity of thread diameter, surface smoothness of thread and etc. The principle of Wound Closure is “Faster is Safer”, but the knotting procedure need some times, especially need more knots on ...
