BENEFITS OF VITAMONO:
- Being monofilament, the suture is smooth, making it easier to pass through tissues as compared to braided sutures.
- The suture is absorbed in tissues by simple hydrolysis and known for reliable absorption.
- It is characterised by excellent handling properties; outstanding pliability and its exceptionally smooth surface ensures easy tissue glide.
- Absence of Collagen proteins and Pyrogenous agents ensure minimal tissue reaction.
VITAMONO is best suited for Subcuticular Dermis Closures, Obstetrics & Gynaecological Surgeries, Soft-tissue Approximation, Gastrointestinal Surgeries and Urology.
