Therapeutic Indications
The Biocryl 2 Round Needle Suture Braided is indicated for use in a wide range of surgical procedures requiring suturing of soft tissues. Its design makes it suitable both for closing epithelial wounds, such as in minor skin surgeries, and for deep sutures in abdominal, thoracic, gynecological or orthopedic procedures. It is particularly suitable when you want to minimize tissue trauma and obtain a linear and aesthetically pleasing scar. The round needle reduces the risk of damaging vascular and nervous structures, ensuring atraumatic penetration through the delicate tissues of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Furthermore, this type of suture can be used in both adult and pediatric patients, facilitating the management of surgical or traumatic wounds and ensuring a high seal of the flaps even in areas subject to movement or stress. Biocryl offers excellent tissue compatibility, reducing the risk of inflammation or rejection, and can be used in procedures where temporary support is required until complete healing. It is also ideal in the dental field, where precision in the closure of the gum tissues is essential for correct oral healing. Its high ease of handling makes it an instrument of choice in clinical routine and in emergency situations.
Composition
Active ingredient: The suture thread is made of Biocryl, a woven synthetic fibre, known for its mechanical resistance and its perfect tolerability by biological tissues. Biocryl is designed to maintain its structural integrity even under complex operating conditions, allowing effective closure for as long as the healing process requires. The needle that accompanies each suture thread is round, made of surgical grade stainless steel, carefully sharpened to facilitate atraumatic penetration of the tissues without causing lacerations or microfractures. This needle-thread combination makes the product particularly versatile and robust, adapting to different operating needs. The package, made up of two pieces, guarantees the sterility of the individual components and preserves their characteristics until use. The absolute absence of latex also ensures maximum safety even for allergic patients, further raising the quality standard of the product. Biocryl is free of dyes or additives that could interfere with intraoperative visibility and the healing process.
Contraindications
The Biocryl 2 Round Needle Braided Suture should be avoided in patients who have a known hypersensitivity to synthetic materials, particularly Biocryl. It is not recommended in clinical situations where an absorbable suture is required, as Biocryl is designed to provide long-lasting support until the suture is manually removed. It should be used with particular caution in patients with severe immunodeficiency conditions or in the presence of significant infections in the wound area, where the risk of complications may increase due to an accentuated inflammatory response. It is not suitable for the suturing of tissues subjected to high tension or continuous traction, nor for ophthalmic or cardiovascular applications, where highly specific materials and different performances are required. Its use is not indicated for the closure of tissues that show evident necrosis or severe uncontrolled hemorrhage.
Product safety for the species

Precautions
Before using the Biocryl 2 Piece Braided Round Needle Suture, always check the integrity of the packaging and the complete sterility of the device. It is important to scrupulously follow asepsis procedures during use, avoiding direct contact of the suture with potentially contaminated surfaces. In case of application on patients with a history of allergic reactions, carefully monitor the treated area after surgery to exclude signs of irritation or rejection. Do not cut the suture thread with anything other than surgical scissors and do not reuse the needle or thread after the first use. After performing the suture, it is good practice to protect the area with suitable dressing materials to minimize the risk of infection. It is also recommended to remove the suture within the suggested times based on the type of operation, to avoid the formation of hypertrophic scars or prolonged local irritation. To eliminate the risk of accidental needle sticks, always use special safety containers to dispose of the needle after use and wear personal protective equipment such as gloves and glasses during the operation. Do not use the product if there are visible changes in the color of the thread or obvious damage to the needle.
Method of administration
The Biocryl 2 Round Needle Suture Braided is applied using standard surgical suturing techniques. After having identified the most suitable insertion point and having prepared the area according to sterile procedures, delicately insert the round needle through the tissue to be sutured with a rotary movement to facilitate atraumatic penetration. Continue pulling the Biocryl braided thread until you obtain the length necessary to perform the desired stitch. It is possible to create continuous or interrupted sutures based on clinical needs, adjusting the tension of the thread to bring the wound edges closer without creating excessive compression. Once tissue closure is complete, tie the surgical knot according to established practice and cut the thread to an appropriate length with sterile scissors. Pay attention to the symmetry and regularity of the points to promote optimal aesthetic and functional healing. Never force the needle if it is difficult to pass through particularly dense or fibrotic tissues, but use the necessary rotation maneuvers to facilitate the path. Finally, monitor the area for any signs of bleeding or stitch openings and proceed with a sterile post-operative dressing.
Treatment program
The length of stay of the Biocryl 2 Round Needle Suture varies depending on the anatomical location, the type of operation and the patient's healing speed. Generally, in skin wounds removal is indicated after 7-14 days, while in subcutaneous or deep tissues a prolonged stay may be necessary, assessed on a case-by-case basis by healthcare personnel. In the case of interventions on areas subjected to continuous mechanical stress, regularly monitor the state of the stitches to exclude signs of fraying or opening of the suture. In emergency situations or for patients with healing difficulties, the staff can decide to anticipate or postpone the removal, always taking into account the individual response. To ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment, periodic inspection of the wound and careful local hygiene are recommended to limit the risk of secondary infections. Any stitches showing signs of inflammation, discharge or persistent pain should be removed promptly. The optimal treatment program will always be defined by the doctor based on the patient's clinical conditions and peculiarities.
