Wounds can be caused due to several factors, which includes overcrowding in animals, animal bites, climate changes, surgical procedures, or infections disorders in animals. The veterinary sutures are used to close wounds or incisions in animals. There are mainly two types of veterinary sutures – absorbable suture and non-absorbable suture. The types of sutures that veterinarians may use, depends on the location, size, and type of tissue being repaired.
The absorbable sutures are typically used for internal wounds or incisions, during surgeries of the internal organs, muscles, or other tissues. Non-absorbable sutures are made from materials like such as nylon, silk, or steel. They are typically used for wounds or incisions that require long-term support, such as skin lacerations, or for the repair of tendons or ligaments.
Overall, the increasing pet ownership rate, advancements in suture material and greater awareness of the benefits of wound closure with sutures is likely due to their convenience, efficacy, and safety, which is likely to boost the market in the coming years.
