Durabarb Plus

Durabarb Plus is an advanced surgical suture composed of polydioxanone, a synthetic antibacterial absorbable material coated with triclosan, distinguished by its barbed design. This unique feature allows for knotless wound closure, providing secure tissue approximation without the need for traditional knots. The barbs along the suture’s length anchor firmly into the tissue, ensuring a strong and stable closure, which is particularly beneficial in procedures requiring rapid wound closure, such as plastic surgery or general surgery. The barbs are arranged in 72 degree spiral arrangements which helps the barbs to anchor the tissues effectively & uniformly all around the barbs.

Material	Monofilament Polydioxanone Barbed Suture
Coating	None
Antimicrobial Coating	Triclosan
Color	Dyed (Violet)
Absorption	Hydrolysis
Sizes	3-0,2-0,0,1
Tissue Reaction	Grade-1, Reactivity - Slight
Applications	Oncology, Geriatric, Gynaecology, Cosmetic surgery, Urology, Vaginal cuff closure after hysterectomy, Urogynaecology surgery myomectomy, Laparoscopy, Gastrointestinal, Laparoscopic. It is mainly used to prevent SSI and inhibit microbial colonization on suture at the site of application.

Features
- Durabarb Plus is a synthetic monofilament absorbable surgical suture, coated with Triclosan to impart antibacterial property to the suture.
- Wound closure is easier than conventional sutures.
- Knotless feature eliminates inflammation caused by knots.
- Avoids the need for consistently monitoring the tension of the suture.
- Eliminates the risk of suture removal, loss of haemoglobin and reduces the duration of hospitalization. Thus, enhancing patient comfort.
Advantages
- Durabarb Plus with triclosan coating helps to fight Surgical site infection. Less suture “spitting,” as there are no knots to be dissolved.
- Minimal strangulation of tissue.
- Less time to close the incision, as multiple layers (subcutaneous and dermis) can be closed together with 1 continuous running suture.
- Better cosmetic result than conventional sutures.
- Durabarb Plus sutures are available with needles made from 300 series alloy steel for superior strength, sharpness and performance.
