Sutures are also called stitches. They are used to repair cuts and to close incisions of surgery. The application of suture involves using a needle with an attached thread. Sutures are classified based on the material of the suture as absorbable suture or non-absorbable suture. Based on the actual structure of the suture material, it is classified into monofilament suture and braided suture. Monofilament suture has a single thread that passes through the suture easily. Braided suture consists of many small threads which are braided together.
