Product Overview

SILKAM BLACK 1 (4) 75CM DS35
Silkam - X0764183


Device Description

A natural, non-bioabsorbable thread made from raw silk spun by silkworms (typically coated with beeswax or silicone) intended to join (i.e., approximate) the edges of a soft-tissue wound or incision by stitching or to ligate soft tissues; it may include an attached disposable device(s) [e.g., needle, passer] intended to facilitate suture application. It provides temporary wound support until the wound sufficiently heals to withstand normal stress. Although classified as a "non-bioabsorbable" material, it may be digested by proteolysis after an extended period of time. This is a single-use device.
