Everything You Need to Know About Monocryl Sutures

Have you been looking for a new suture material to use in your healthcare business? Or perhaps you’re lined up to get monocryl sutures in your next operation, and you want to find out a little more about the material first.

Whatever the case, our experts are on hand to help you learn a little more about what monocryl sutures are, how they work, what colour and sizes they’re available in, and the like. Hopefully, this should help you find out more about the benefits that monocryl suture materials could provide for your needs.

History of Monocryl Sutures

Before going any further, it’s well worth considering the history of monocryl sutures and how this has changed the technique of suturing. Monocryl was first used for sutures in the 1990s, making it a relatively new surgical material.

Generally speaking, the material is made from a copolymer of epsiloncaprolactone and glycolide compounds, which helps provide its unique features. Crucially, monocryl sutures are also highly sterile, making them safer for use with surgical procedures.

Benefits of Monocryl Suture Materials

It is generally well-praised for its high tensile strength, rapid absorption times (making it good for minor wounds), and low skin irritability. It also provides smooth passage through the skin and tissue, making it an easy suture material to use even in more intricate procedures.

Monocryl sutures are also excellent for minimising scarring during the recovery process, which is further supported by the material’s primary use for minor and facial wounds and injuries.

What Type of Suture is Monocryl?

When considering the main classification of sutures, monocryl sutures are classed as a synthetic, absorbable material, which puts them in the same category as other materials like vicryl and PDS. Some natural alternatives to monocryl could hence include plain surgical gut and collagen.

As a dissolvable suture, monocryl can be an excellent material for many applications. However, it’s important to recognize that monocryl sutures are widely used for relatively minor wounds that don’t need such a long period of time to recover.

They may be less effective for severe wounds that need several weeks before the injury is strong enough to hold its own structure since the monocryl sutures will lose strength significantly after one to two weeks.

How Long Does Monocryl Take to Dissolve in the Body?

Monocryl sutures are a monofilament with a half life of just seven to fourteen days. Thus, this means that monocryl sutures will be drastically weakened by the time two weeks have elapsed, allowing them to naturally dissolve within the body – potentially eradicating the need to remove the sutures once the wound has healed manually.

However, it’s important to consider that patients experiencing a protein deficiency, a fever, or an ongoing infection may see faster absorption rates, which may not allow enough time for the wound to begin healing.

Common Applications for Monocryl Sutures

If you’re looking to include monocryl suture materials in your own practice, it is important to recognise that these materials are relatively quick to dissolve. However, their low tissue reactivity makes them potentially valuable options to consider with sensitive skin types and areas. Therefore, monocryl sutures are commonly used for stitching the subcuticular dermis on face incisions, wounds, and surgeries.

However, monocryl is less effective for patients experiencing delayed wound healing or deep wounds; therefore, the elderly, malnourished, or otherwise healing-affected patients may not be good candidates to receive monocryl sutures. It is much less effective for high tension suturing, too, due to the rapid absorption time that may leave the sutures significantly weakened after one to two weeks.

What Monocryl Suture Colour Options are Available

At this point, it’s worth considering the different monocryl suture colour options available. Mst commonly, monocryl suture colours are clear. However, for applications requiring a more easily visible suture, monocryl can also come in a dyed violet colour.

The Different Monocryl Suture Sizes

Monocryl suture materials are available in several different sizes, which may be well worth considering as part of your decision. For example, you can purchase a monocryl suture in width sizes of around 11 to 20 mm in width, with lengths of up to 250cm.

How Can a Monocryl Suture be Used for Stitches?

A monocryl suture is incredibly common for use with stitches, and it has several properties that may make it valuable in this regard. One of the main benefits of using monocryl sutures is that it doesn’t cause the same level of irritation as some other suture or stitch materials may, such as the braided polyfilament material, vicryl.

Furthermore, since monocryl sutures are dissolvable, they may be a more practical solution for use in patients who are uneasy with the thought of having the stitches removed (which can sometimes be an uncomfortable or tricky process).

What’s the Difference Between a Monocryl and Poliglecaprone Suture?

It’s easy to feel a little unsure about the differences between monocryl and poliglecaprone sutures. However, these are actually one and the same since monocryl and poliglecaprone are the same material.

However, there are several different types of poliglecaprone sutures on the market, and these may have slightly different properties. For example, poliglecaprone 25 offers a significantly slower absorption time of up to 120 days (approximately four months) to fully dissolve by the body. As such, certain grades of poliglecaprone may be better suited for applications requiring a longer recovery time.

If you’ve been looking to invest in a new type of suture for your medical business, monocryl sutures might be jt the option you need. Indeed, monocryl suture stitches are increasingly popular thanks to their ability to heal easily without a significant risk of leaving a scar.

Moreover, it’s well worth considering that monocryl sutures are also dissolvable and easy to apply with steri strips, which may further increase their value for many patients.

MONOCRYL Sutures is a monofilament synthetic absorbable surgical suture prepared from a copolymer of glycolide and epsilon-caprolactone.1MONOCRYL Sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation where an absorbable material is indicated.

These sutures (dyed and undyed), being absorbable, should not be used where extended approximation of tissues under stress is required. Monocryl UNDYED must not be used for abdominal closure or to close fascial tissue.

Where to Shop for the More Expensive Monocryl Ethicon Sutures?

Medical or surgical sutures such as the monocryl ethicon can cost over £200+ for one box. This type is more expensive than some of the other types that are meant for basic wound care.Complicated types of surgical procedures require more secure sutures.

Even though your medical facility may have a generous budget, you still want to keep your costs within budget in case there are other surprises ahead.

It is still possible to find the monocryl poliglecaprone suture kit for sale for more reasonable prices.

Why You Should Shop Ethicon at Reputable Sources

Just like when shopping for designer brand clothing or other items online, you need to be careful. There is a whole world of fraudulent products coming from certain parts of the world.

It’s not difficult to scan a box of sutures, make cheap copies in the factory, then package them and offer for sale on certain mass-market websites. You need to not only protect your patients from inferior surgical supplies but to also be assured of the quality and the brand of what you are buying.

Monocryl ethicon has been created for surgical professionals in hospitals. But you want to be assured that you are getting what you are ordering.
