The Q-close SynthFast Absorbable Surgical Suture is a synthetic, braided absorbable suture engineered from polyglactin 910 with a rapid absorption profile and smooth tissue handling characteristics. This high-performance suture is coated with a blend of polyglactin 370 and calcium stearate to optimise glide, reduce tissue drag and support secure knot tying.
SynthFast maintains approximately 45% of its tensile strength at 7 days post-implantation and undergoes complete hydrolytic absorption within about 42 days, making it ideal where short-term wound support and rapid suture resorption are clinically desirable.
Indicated for general soft tissue approximation, SynthFast is particularly effective for skin closure, including use in paediatric surgery, episiotomies, circumcision and closure of oral mucosa. Its consistent performance, predictable absorption and secure knot reliability make it an excellent choice for clinicians seeking efficient wound closure with rapid healing timelines.
Available in a range of USP sizes (6/0 to 0) to suit varied tissue types and procedural requirements, Q-close SynthFast supports streamlined surgical workflows with dependable clinical outcomes.
