Braided sutures are essential medical supplies used in surgical procedures for wound closure, tissue approximation, and ligation. At LAC Health, our braided sutures category includes a range of high-quality, medical-grade products designed for hospitals, surgical centers, clinics, long-term care facilities, and home health settings. These sutures are crafted from materials like silk, polyester, or absorbable polymers, ensuring strength, flexibility, and minimal tissue reaction. Key features include braided construction for enhanced knot security, various sizes from 5-0 to 2, and options for absorbable or non-absorbable types. Absorbable braided sutures, such as those made from polyglycolic acid, are ideal for internal use as they degrade naturally over time, while non-absorbable ones like silk provide long-term support for skin closure. Clinical use cases span general surgery, orthopedics, obstetrics, and emergency medicine, where precise wound healing is critical. All products in this category meet stringent regulatory standards, including FDA clearance, ISO 13485 certification, CE marking, and ASTM specifications, guaranteeing safety and efficacy. When selecting the right braided suture, consider factors like needle type (tapered or cutting), thread diameter, tensile strength, and absorption rate. Our sizing guide helps match products to specific procedures, ensuring optimal performance. For bulk ordering, LAC Health offers volume discounts, contract pricing, and minimum order quantities tailored to institutional buyers. This makes it cost-effective for hospitals and clinics to stock up on these vital supplies. We provide comprehensive technical documentation, including Safety Data Sheets (SDS), Instructions for Use (IFU), and certificates of compliance, accessible directly from product pages. Fast shipping options ensure timely delivery, and our team supports wholesale purchasing to meet the demands of high-volume medical environments. Whether for routine surgeries or specialized applications, our braided sutures deliver reliability and peace of mind.
