The Endure Non-Absorbable NYLON Suture is a sterile, monofilament suture composed of the long-chain, aliphatic polymers Polyamide (Nylon). Our NYLON Sutures meet the requirements of the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) Pharmacopoeia of monograph requirements for non-absorbable surgical sutures. Wesuture is the brand name of surgical sutures by Endure Industries.

INDICATIONS

NYLON Suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in ophthalmic procedures. Sutures should be selected and implanted depending on patient condition, surgical experience, surgical technique and wound size.

PERFORMANCE

NYLON Suture elicits an initial inflammatory reaction in tissues, which is followed by gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissues. While NYLON Suture is non absorbable, progressive degradation of the Endure NYLON Suture fiber in vivo may result in gradual loss of all the suture's tensile strength over time.
