The Ethicon D6405 PLEDGET Soft TFE Polymer Pledget is a high-quality surgical accessory that provides optimal support during delicate suturing. These pledgets, which have a 3mm x 3mm x 1.5mm size, are made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a biocompatible non-absorbable material with significant strength and minimal reactivity with human soft tissue. Each box contains 36 individually sterile pledgets for use in a wide range of surgical specialties.
Best Quality PTFE Material:
These pledgets are made from Soft TFE (PTFE) polymer which is known for its excellent mechanical strength for soft TFE. They are soft but strong enough to prevent suture pull-through, which makes them suitable for use in high-tension zones.
Compact Size for Precision:
The size of these pledgets is 3mm x 3mm x 1.5mm which are small enough to work in precise and delicate surgical fields. The compact size allows for accurate placement and does not interfere with surrounding tissues.
Biocompatible and Non-Absorbable:
The chemical inertness of PTFE along with its non-significant inflammatory response makes these pledgets safe for long-term implantation. They are non-absorbable which provides support over time when permanent tissue support is needed.
Ready for Use and Sterile:
Ordered by each pledget being sterilized helps a surgeon to steam the workflow in the operating room as well as minimizing the chances of infection.
D6405 pledgets are versatile for multiple types of surgical procedures. They can be utilized in cardiovascular, vascular, general, thoracic and orthopedic surgeries. They work exceptionally well in suture line reinforcing, defect closing, and protecting delicate tissue from destructive suturing.
Clinical Application Required:
Cardiac Surgery:
Uses include reinforcing sutures during valve repairs/replacements, vessel anastomosis, and patch closures to mitigate damage to delicate vascular tissues.
General and Thoracic Procedures:
Best for supporting closure in high-tension or low-quality tissue diaphragmatic hernia or thoracic wall reconstruction.
Orthopedic Surgery:
Can be used to support suture soft tissue tendons or ligaments in the procedures where active soft tissue support is needed.
Neurosurgery and ENT:
Best for extreme microsurgery which needs delicate suturing for extra support.
Security of sutures is enhanced with less tissue damage.
Under tension, maintains positional stability.
Minimized tissue reaction for optimal healing.
Conveniently sterile for surgical efficiency.
Ethicon, known for quality and innovation in surgical products, backs these claims.
The Ethicon D6405 PLEDGET Soft TFE Polymer Pledget is tailored to the surgeon needing reliable suturing reinforcement in highly stressed or delicate anatomical areas. Its size, biocompatibility, and soft PTFE construction make it easy to trust in cases where precision and tissue preservation are vital. Each box of 36 pledgets allows for dependable, high-quality support for countless surgical procedures.
