Effect of the wicking behavior of multifilament sutures.

Abstract:

:The purpose of this study was to compare the wicking propensity of multifilament sutures. Dexon II, Vicryl, and black silk suture (BSS) were dipped in saline or soaked for 48 h, then suspended on a microscope slide. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-D) was placed at the suture mid points, and its movement was observed using fluorescence microscopy. The experiment was repeated, replacing the FITC-D with mixture of S. salivarius and saline, incubating the suture specimens in culture medium, and evaluating microbial growth. Dipped sutures showed FITC-D movement in the Dexon II group only. All 48-h soaked sutures demonstrated FITC-D movement with significant (p < 0.005) differences in mean times: BSS 179 +/- 42 s; Vicryl 120 +/- 26 s; and Dexon II 32 +/- 2 s. Dexon II suture demonstrated wicking of S. salivarius, whereas Vicryl and BSS did not (p < 0.05). These results suggest that BSS and Vicryl sutures do not wick as readily as Dexon II does.
