Sutures

Sutures are medical devices used to close wounds or surgical incisions. They are typically made of absorbable or non-absorbable materials, such as nylon, polyester, or silk. Sutures are available in a variety of sizes, lengths, and shapes. They are generally applied using a needle and thread, and are used to hold tissue together until it heals.

Sutures are manufactured by a variety of companies, including Ethicon, Covidien, and B. Braun. Prices for sutures can vary widely, depending on the type and size of the suture needed. For example, a box of 12-0 nylon sutures can range from $20 to $50, while a box of 4-0 polyester sutures can range from $50 to $100. Prices may also vary depending on the manufacturer and the retailer.
