Features & Benefits:

  • Ethicon Polypropylene Sutures with Suture USP: 3-0, Brand: Prolene, Suture Color: Blue, Strands per Pack: 1, Suture Length (Inches): 18, Construction: Monofilament, Point Type: Precision Point Reverse Cutting, Curvature Fraction: 3/8C, Needle Type: PS-2.
  • Prolene™ Sutures elicit a minimal inflammatory reaction in tissue, which is followed by gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissue. Prolene™ Sutures are not absorbed, nor are they subject to degradation or weakening by the action of tissue enzymes.
  • As a monofilament, Prolene™ Sutures resist involvement in infection and have been successfully employed in contaminated and infected wounds to eliminate or minimize later sinus formation and suture extrusion. Furthermore, the lack of adherence to the tissues has facilitated the use of PROLENE Suture as a pull-out suture.
  • Carefully selecting a surgical suture needle is a critical component in achieving excellent wound closure outcomes. The ideal surgical needle should be:
    • Sharp enough to penetrate and carry suture through tissue with minimal resistance.
    • Slim as possible without compromising strength.
    • Rigid to resist bending, yet ductile to resist breaking.
    • Stable in the grasp of the needle holder.
  • Ethicon offers over 200 types of surgical suture needles, allowing clinicians great flexibility to select the most appropriate needle for the specific needs of the tissue being repaired.
  • It is available in Box of 36 Suture Sets.

Application:

  • Prolene™ Polypropylene Suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximating and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic procedures, and neurological procedures.
