Description
Medtronic V-Loc™ PBT Non-Absorbable Suture
Non-Absorbable Knotless Wound Closure Device
- Tensile Strength: Permanent
- Absorption Profile: Permanent
- Procedural Applications: Soft Tissue Approximation
- Color: Blue
- Composition: Polybutester
- Indications: Soft Tissue Approximation
- Strength of conventional permanent suture with the benefits of barbed technology
- Ensures confidence and peace of mind as it provides the strength of conventional permanent suture
- First non-absorbable, unidirectional barb design with evenly spaced barbs throughout the strand to provide secure wound closure
- Grasps tissue at numerous points, distributing tension across the wound
- Welded loop design is intuitive, requiring virtually no change to standard wound closure technique
Secure, Fast & Effective
- Close wounds without the need to tie knots, maintaining strength and security
- Close dermal incisions up to 50% faster
- Potential to reduce knot related complications by eliminating knot mass
- Unidirectional barb design distributes tension across the wound with evenly spaced barbs throughout the strand

- FDA Product Code: GAT
- FDA Product Code Name: Suture, Nonabsorbable, Synthetic, Polyethylene
- GMDN Term Code: 60480
- GMDN Term Name: Barbed polyester suture, non-antimicrobial
- GMDN Term Description: A single-strand (monofilament), synthetic, bioabsorbable thread made from a polyester intended to approximate the edges of a soft-tissue wound or incision by stitching. It is designed with barbs along its length intended to facilitate tissue approximation by adding tension, a fixation feature (e.g., tab, loop, bidirectional barbs) intended to eliminate the need to tie a knot, and may include disposable suture application devices [e.g., needle, passer]. The thread provides extended temporary wound support, until the wound sufficiently heals to withstand normal stress, and is subsequently absorbed by hydrolysis. It does not include antimicrobial agents/materials. This is a single-use device.
