SMI Surgical Blades are used during surgical procedures for cutting skin and tissues. They are made from carbon steel which provides an exact performance. These surgical blades lower drag and tissue trauma due to their special edge treatment. They also ensure consistent sharpness, and are sterile and available in a broad range of sizes.
Standard SMI-Spon 10 x 10 x 10 mm. Box with 32 pieces. SMI-Spon Gelatin Sponges are surgical hemostatic sponges made from highly purified first grade gelatin material. SMI-Spon is designed for use in various surgical procedures and quickly and effectively stops rapid bleeding. Reduces intraoperative bleeding and surgery time. When applied and used in proper amounts, SMI-Spon is completely absorbed in 3-4 weeks. SMI-Spon is biocompatible, non-pyrogenic and non-toxic. Products are gamma-sterilized and individually packed in ready-to-use blisters.
Silk Braided Black Nahtmaterial from SMI
The Silk Braided Black suture material from SMI is made from the natural protein thread of the silkworm. The braided multifilament is coated and is not resorbed. As a result, it offers long tissue life of several months. The suture material has excellent handling properties. The thread is flexible, particularly tear-resistant and features strong knot security. The ready-to-use needle-thread combination is available in various needle and thread strengths.
