Description
Nylon Suture, Size 5/0, 18", PS-2 Needle, Box of 12 consists of monofilament nylon, a nonabsorbable polyamide known for its high initial tensile strength and low tissue reactivity. The material's smooth, uniform surface ensures consistent handling and facilitates clean tissue passage. It is designed to minimize trauma, making it suitable for delicate wound closure where tissue preservation is critical.
The suture is paired with a PS-2 reverse cutting needle, 19 mm in length and 3/8 circle in shape. This needle type is engineered for efficient penetration of tough or fibrous tissue, offering controlled precision with minimal resistance. The reverse cutting configuration reduces the risk of needle cutting through tissue unintentionally, making it ideal for skin closures and similar applications.
Nylon’s nonabsorbable nature makes it suitable for external closure, where suture removal is anticipated. Its monofilament structure also reduces the risk of bacterial harboring, supporting favorable healing conditions. The material maintains integrity throughout the wound healing period but eventually loses tensile strength over time due to hydrolysis if left in situ.
