ADVAMRYL suture is monofilament synthetic absorbable surgical suture prepared from a copolymer of Glycolide and epsilon-caprolactone.
ADVAMRYL suture is colored violet to increase visibility and are also available undyed.
The advanced extrusion process of the molecule gives ADVAMRYL:
Robust manufacturing process & superior primary aluminum packaging
ADVAMRYL suture is a synthetic absorbable monofilament sterile surgical suture composed of a copolymer made from a copolymer of Glycolide and ε-caprolactone.
ADVAMRYL suture is available in both undyed & violet form.
ADVAMRYL suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, but not for use in ophthalmic surgery, micro surgery, cardiovascular and neurological tissues.
ADVAMRYL suture being an absorbable suture, should not be used where extended approximation of tissue under stress is required. The use of this suture is also contraindicated in patients with known sensitivities or allergies to Poliglecaprone 25.
The progressive loss of tensile strength and eventual absorption of ADVAMRYL suture occurs by means of hydrolysis. Absorption begins as a loss of tensile strength followed by a loss of mass.
