Ethicon PDS Plus Antibacterial (Polydioxanone) Absorbable Surgical Suture PDP9355H

This PDS™ Plus Antibacterial (Polydioxanone) Surgical Suture, product code PDP9355H, is engineered for reliable soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring extended tensile strength and antimicrobial protection. Manufactured from synthetic absorbable polydioxanone monofilament, PDS™ Plus incorporates triclosan antibacterial technology to support infection risk management in surgical environments.

The violet monofilament construction enhances intraoperative visibility while ensuring smooth tissue passage and reduced tissue drag. Polydioxanone delivers predictable hydrolytic absorption and prolonged tensile strength retention throughout the critical wound healing phase.

Each suture features a 90 cm strand length, supporting extended closure techniques and controlled handling across larger operative fields. Supplied with a V-34 needle, this configuration is designed to facilitate dependable penetration and accurate soft tissue approximation across a wide range of surgical applications.

With an extended absorption profile of approximately 182–238 days, PDS™ Plus maintains tensile strength during healing before gradual hydrolytic absorption. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional hospital and surgical environments requiring reliable long-term absorbable wound closure with antibacterial protection.
