Sutures
For certain professions, specialized products are not merely a luxury. To adhere to stringent health and safety guidelines while performing their tasks, functional textiles must withstand extreme external influences.
Suturing, a surgical procedure with a history of 4000 years, has evolved with advancing technology, resulting in more innovative suture structures today. The future of fiber technology for medical textiles and applications hinges on upcoming medical and surgical requirements.
Fibers play a crucial role in the medical field, offering various properties and functions that contribute to advancements in medical practices. Key functions of medical textile products include tenacity, softness, elasticity, and biodegradability. The main requirements for medical textiles are as follows:
- Sterilized
- Non-allergic
- Demonstrating specific physical/chemical properties
- Bio-degradability
- Absorbency/Repellency
- Strength
