  • ADVABOND with Pledget suture is a sterile, coated, braided, synthetic, non-absorbable surgical suture composed of Polyethylene Terephthalate. The suture is coated with Silicone which acts as a lubricant to mechanically improve the ease of passage through tissue and the overall handling qualities of the suture.

  • ADVABOND with Pledget suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, and ophthalmic procedures. The use of suture is contraindicated in patients with known sensitivities or allergies to Polyester and PTFE (If suture with pledget is used).

  • ADVABOND with Pledget suture elicits a minimal initial inflammatory reaction in tissues, which is followed by a gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissue. No significant change in the retention of tensile strength of the suture occurs during the lifetime of the implantation.
