Here’s what you need to know:
1. The Dynacord Suture responds to changes in repair tension occurring over time, promoting stability in the healing process.
2. It’s composed of two outer sheaths of braided fibers and a core made of silicone and salt. This internal salt-filled core helps Dynacord Suture maintain a stable repair environment.
3. When Dynacord Suture is placed in the body, the salt particles within the silicone core dissolve, leaving behind a porous structure within the silicone core.
4. The devices expands outward if the repair loses tension, maintaining a stable repair environment during the healing process.
5. Full launch of the device is expected in the third quarter of 2018.
