Quill RA-1067Q PDO 0 VIOLET 36cm x 36cm CT-1 DOUBLE ARM Box of 12

Quill™ Knotless Tissue-Closure Device | Size 0 | 36cm x 36cm | Double-Armed CT-1 | RA-1067Q

The Quill™ RA-1067Q is a high-performance, knotless surgical fixation device utilizing bidirectional barbed technology. Composed of Polydioxanone (PDO), this absorbable monofilament is engineered for tissues that require extended wound support. By eliminating the need for traditional surgical knots—which can act as a nidus for infection and create localized tension points—the Quill™ system distributes wound-closure forces evenly across the entire length of the incision.

This configuration is Double-Armed, featuring two CT-1 (Circle Taper) needles on a single 72cm total length strand ($36\text{cm} + 36\text{cm}$). The bidirectional barbs change direction at the center marker, allowing the surgeon to anchor the device at the midpoint and progress in both directions simultaneously for a rapid, high-security closure.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Knotless Fixation Security: The helical array of barbs anchors the device directly into the tissue, eliminating the "knot-tying" phase of the procedure. This significantly reduces total operative time and removes the risk of knot slippage or breakage.

• Extended PDO Tensile Support: Polydioxanone is renowned for its longevity, maintaining approximately 80% of its strength at 2 weeks and 60% at 4 weeks. This makes it ideal for high-tension fascia or joint capsule closures where healing is prolonged.

• Atraumatic CT-1 Needle Performance: The 36 mm CT-1 taper point needles are designed to pierce and spread tissue fibers rather than cutting them. This minimizes bleeding and ensures a tight, "zero-leak" interface in delicate internal structures.

• Balanced Tension Distribution: Unlike traditional interrupted sutures that "strangle" localized tissue, the Quill™ barbs provide a continuous, uniform grip. This promotes better tissue perfusion and superior cosmetic outcomes at the dermal level.

• Efficient OR Workflow: The double-armed design facilitates a "parachute" technique or a centered running stitch, allowing for a symmetrical closure that is especially beneficial in large orthopedic reconstructions or laparoscopic port-site closures.

Applications

• Orthopedic Surgery: Robust closure of the joint capsule and deep fascia in total hip and knee replacements.

• OB/GYN: Secure closure of the uterine incision (C-section) or vaginal cuff during hysterectomy.

• General Surgery: Fascia-level closure in laparotomy or complex hernia repairs requiring long-term absorbable support.

• Plastic & Reconstructive: Large body-contouring procedures where high-tension skin and subcutaneous apposition are required.
