Knotless Barbed Suture

Polydioxanone (PDO) Knotless Barbed Sutures with Black Needle

Suturing without knotting

  • Efficiency: The triangular flap design enables smooth tissue closure, reducing tissue damage and shortening suturing time​
  • Stability: Evenly spaced barbs anchor securely in the tissue, providing consistent tension and secure wound closure.​
  • Enhanced visibility: The blackened needle minimises glare and reflection under surgical lighting, reducing eye fatigue. Its high contrast against blood improves visibility, which is particularly beneficial in endoscopic and minimally invasive procedures.​

Sanaloc™ PLUS Antibacterial Compressed Knotless Barbed Sutures​

Faster closure with antibacterial coating​

  • Efficiency: Unidirectional barbs and a fixation tab enable a secured tissue closure without the need for surgical knots, allowing for faster and smoother wound closure in the OR.​
  • Reliable: Barbs are evenly spaced to distribute tension evenly, ensuring a stable wound closure throughout the healing process​.
  • Reduces risk of surgical site infection: Multiple studies have demonstrated that antibacterial sutures can effectively reduce the incidence of surgical site infections and are supported by global clinical guidelines (WHO, CDC, ACS/SIS) as part of surgical site infection prevention strategies.
