Zeus offers flexible and adaptable suture products designed to obtain better closure, minimize the immune response, and promote optimal tissue attachment for swift patient healing.
Aeos™ ePTFE suture products are engineered using advanced extrusion and orientation techniques to achieve both standard and high strength suture options tailored to your exact needs. These biocompatible suture products can be safely implanted in the human body with minimal immune response.
Combining a 1:1 suture-to-needle ratio with a soft feel and excellent drape, lubricious Aeos™ ePTFE sutures help minimize patient bleeding while ensuring accurate knot placement during delicate procedures. Standard Aeos™ ePTFE sutures are well-suited for challenging anatomical environments and applications, such as dental sutures for bone grafts and implants.
When demanding applications require enhanced strength, such as in mitral valve repair, Aeos™ high strength suture monofilaments are an ideal choice. With nearly three times the USP knot-pull strength of standard ePTFE sutures, Aeos™ ePTFE high strength suture monofilaments provide superior performance for long-term load-bearing applications while still retaining soft feel and flexibility.
Standard Aeos™ suture monofilaments (ASM), are available in 6 sizes with mean diameters ranging from 0.008″ – 0.030″ (0.203 mm – 0.762 mm). Aeos™ high strength suture monofilament products are available in 3 sizes with mean diameters ranging from 0.008″ – 0.0155″ (0.203 mm – 0.3937 mm).
