• With significantly more points of fixation than traditional sutures, STRATAFIX devices give surgeons more consistent control over every pass and combine the strength and security of interrupted closure with more efficiency than continuous closure
• STRATAFIX Spiral PDO Knotless Tissue Control Device consists of barbed suture material, armed with a surgical needle on each end
• Barbs allow for tissue approximation without the need to tie surgical knots
• STRATAFIX Spiral PDO Device is comprised of dyed (violet) polyester, poly (p-dioxanone)
• The strength of the Stratafix device can be compared to USP knot strength of non-barbed sutures
• Absorption of STRATAFIX PDO Device is minimal until about 120 days, and is essentially complete within 180 days (six months)
• STRATAFIX Spiral PDO Device contains bidirectionally oriented barbs to anchor tissues and does not require knots to approximate opposing edges of a wound
• Tying knots on the barbed section of the material will damage the barbs and potentially reduce the suture tensile strength and barb effectiveness
• For the bidirectional forces to be created and for the device to function properly, both sides of the STRATFIX device must be engaged in the tissue
• Additionally, when completing placement, an additional backstitch or bite of tissue lateral to the end of the incision is required to lock the device in place
