Material :
Non-absorbable,
Monofilament Polypropylene Mesh. Polypropylene mesh is constructed of knitted filaments of extruded polypropylene.
Virtues :
Polypropylene mesh fabric has all the characteristics of an
ideal mesh
with design for elastic, flexible, strong, transparent Mesh.
Thickness of Filament :
Approximately 0.020 inches / 0.675 mm
Thinner mesh for easy manipulation and placement
Design :
Porosity for high visibility, colonization and integration
SURUMESH™
is having the appearance of a larger screen type mesh is
used as a matrix into which dense fibrous scar forms greatly
increasing the tensile strength of the healed wound at the
level of the hernia defect. It acts like re-inforcing steel
bars in concrete which greatly increases resistance to
shearing, stretching or burst forces. Monofilament fiber as
opposed to woven fibers provides no place for bacteria to
lodge and thus are much more resistant to infection. The mesh
actually feels like a piece of cloth and by placing it in the
unique posterior to the muscle layer position, is undetectable
by the patient. Monofilament suture material of the same
substance as the mesh further increases strength and decreases
the possibility of infection and thus recurrence.
SURUMESH™
is knitted by a process which
interlinks each fiber junction and provides for elasticity in
both directions. This construction permits the mesh to be cut into
any desired shape or size without unraveling. The fiber junctions
are not subject to the same work fatigue exhibited by more rigid
metallic meshes. This bi-directional elastic property allows
adoption to various stresses encountered in the body.
Support :
Provides maximum support and elasticity permanently.
SURUMESH™ is used to span and reinforce atraumatic or surgical wounds to
provide extended support during and following wound healing.
Burst Strength :
High tensile strength and burst resistance upto 18 Kg/cm2
This material, when used as a suture, has been reported to be
non-reactive and to retain its strength indefinitely
