polysorb suture
coated, braided synthetic absorbable sutures are composed of lactomer glycolide/lactide copolymer, for use in soft tissue approximation of ligation and ophthalmic surgery, but not in cardiovascular or neural tissue. should not be used where extended approximation of tissue is required. sutures are approximately 140% of usp and ep knot strengths initially, are approximately 80% at two weeks and approximately 30% at three weeks POST-Implant. absorption of sutures is essentially complete between the 56th and 70th day. usp sz 1, 4 metric, length: 30, color: violet, 36/box, reverse cutting 1/2 circle, 48mm, GS-13
An item designed for stitching and thus securing tissues. It is designed of a material which will be dissolved and absorbed in such tissues.
Indicates there is no data in the hmirs and the nsn is in a fsc not generally suspected of containing hazardous materials.
Item does not contain precious metal.
Represents items with no adp components
The item does not have a nuclear hardened feature or any other critical feature such as tolerance, fit restriction or application.
HMIC: Hazardous Material Indicator Code. A one position code that identifies a hazardous item.
PMIC: Precious Metal Indicator Code. A one position code which identifies items that have precious metals as part of their content. precious metals are those metals generally considered to be uncommon, highly valuable, and relatively superior in certain properties such as resistance to corrosion and electrical conductivity.
ESD: Electrostatic Discharge. Indicates if an item is susceptible to electrostatic discharge or electromagnetic interference damage. electrostatic discharge damage occurs when an accumulation of static electricity generated by the relative motion or separation of materials is released to another item by direct contact. electromagnetic interference damage occurs when an item comes into proximity with an electrostatic or magnetic field.
ENAC: Enviromental Attribute Code. Identifies items with environmentally preferred characteristics.
CRITL: Criticality Indicator Code. Indicates an item is technically critical by tolerance, fit, application, nuclear hardness properties, or other characteristics.
