Dit is een van de producten die geleverd kan worden bij chirurgisch hechtdraad. Voor zover ik weet wordt het gebruikt om bijvoorbeeld twee draaduiteinden aan elkaar te bevestigen.

neutral  Barend van Zadelhoff: Ik denk niet dat deze bewoording past in de context en in een IFU voor hechtdraad. Het gaat niet om een 'zegel' maar om een 'verzegeling' van hechtdraden. Het is dus noch 'zegellood' noch een 'loodzegel'.

Reference information:
One prior art construction is known in which the suture has two separate suture strands swaged at one end directly to an eyeless needle. The other free ends of these two suture strands are connected and sealed together by a small lead weight or shot.

Such a suture construction has some disadvantages. It does not enable the double suture strands to be pulled completely through a tissue puncture if the puncture is made at the wrong location. The needle must be backed out which is difficult, or else the lead seal must be cut off requiring a new suture to be used. This suture does not enable double-armed sutures to be used, that is, one in which needles are attached at both ends of the suture strand.

  -> Dank je, Akke. Ik denk dat ik het zonder verdere specifieke informatie 'loodjes voor (hechtdraad)verzegeling' of 'loodverzegeling' zou noemen.
