Speed. Reliability. Strength.

Enhances wound closure

Controls and distributes tension within the wound
Facilitates closure of difficult wounds, including purse-string applications
Minimizes difficulties associated with knots
Has the potential to decrease time under anesthesia, therby reducing surgery risks associated with prolonged anesthesia^2-4

Increased efficiency by saving time¹

Eliminates the need to tie knots
Enables use of running vs interrupted sutures

How Quill™ SRS works

Quill™ SRS works by approximating tissues through bidirectional fixation
Bidirectional barbs pull through tissue in one direction and catch in another
Forces are distributed across multiple barbs, distributing tension within the wound
The knotless self-anchoring system:

- Increases efficiency
- Enhances wound closure

Where Quill™ SRS works

Primary closure

Deep subcuticular: Quill™ SRS can be used to close the deep subcuticular layer with a subcuticular suturing technique
Deeper layers: Quill™ SRS can also be used to close tissue in deeper layers with a helical suturing technique

Wound-tension support

Using a straight Keith needle, Quill™ SRS can be used to approximate tissue prior to primary closure, therby relieving tension within the wound
