After surgery, in order to improve the appearance and ease the pain of postoperative suture removal, the hospital will use absorbable suture needles for patients, and the absorbable suture needles have become the surgical suture needles commonly used in the world medical industry. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of using surgically sutureable suture needles are also a problem that patients are more concerned about.

Absorbable sutures are mainly divided into gut, polymer chemical sutures and pure natural collagen sutures. The absorbable suture needles produced by Shandong Haidike Biotechnology Co., Ltd. are chrome/flat sausage gut, PDO, PGLA, PGCL, PGA, etc. It can be absorbed by body tissues after use of absorbable suture needles. It has sufficient biocompatibility, stable absorption, and short time, which makes the wound heal well and the scar is shallow. The absorbable suture will maintain a certain strength in the body, can be stored for a long time, is resistant to disinfection, and is easy to be sterilized, and will not bring the tissue depression, crack, blood clot and bacteria adhesion after healing.

Absorbable suture needles have advantages and disadvantages. The absorbable suture is completely absorbed by the body by chemical hydrolysis in the tissue. There are many factors in the rate of degradation. If the bioabsorbable material is degraded improperly, it may release some harmful substances and endanger human health. It is also possible that the tissue degrades before healing to affect the strength and elasticity of the absorbable suture, so the use of absorbable sutures may be difficult to achieve the desired effect in tissues with high tension, and use may be limited.

Although there are certain defects in absorbable sutures, they are all selectively avoided. The doctor will select the appropriate surgical suture thread according to the patient's physical condition, wound tissue and other conditions.
