Overview:

Since fascial tissue heals slowly, fascial closure presents unique clinical challenges, such as the risk of dehiscence and infection. However, choosing the appropriate tool for fascial closure can help address known risk factors for these complications.(Ref: 1,172,173)

To create an environment that facilitates healing of the fascial tissue, sutures should:

  • Provide the strength to support the fascia and resist abdominal pressure through the critical healing period (14-28 days after surgery) and beyond(Ref: 172,173)
  • Protect against colonization of the suture by organisms commonly associated with SSIs(Ref: 170,185)
  • Pass smoothly through fascia to minimize tissue trauma

PDS Plus Sutures are specifically designed for secure fascial closure in multiple patient types:

  • Retains 60% of its original strength for 6 weeks, providing support to the fascia as it slowly heals
  • Shown in vitro to kill bacteria and inhibit bacterial colonization of the suture
  • Monofilament design and polymer properties minimize drag force and elicit only a slight tissue reaction during absorption(Ref: 172)

Description and Specifications:

PDS Plus Sutures provide multiple benefits to address risk factors associated with dehiscence and infection in fascial closure, including:

  • Immediate support during the critical healing period (14 to 28 days) and extended support as the fascia slowly regains strength(Ref: 172,195)
  • Protection against colonization of the suture by bacteria commonly associated with surgical site infections (SSIs), including:
    • Staphylococcus aureus
    • Staphylococcus epidermidis
    • Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
    • Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE)
    • Klebsiella pneumoniae
    • Escherichia coli
  • Propriety polymer that passes smoothly through tissue and utilizes a hydrolytic process to minimize tissue reaction during absorption(Ref: 172)
