Description

The Suture, Prolene Mono Blue 3-0 18 FS1, features a reverse cutting needle designed for precise and reliable suturing in various medical procedures. Prolene is a nonabsorbable monofilament suture known for its durability and strength, making it suitable for general soft tissue approximation and ligation.

The Prolene suture is employed in a range of specialized procedures, including cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological surgeries. Its nonabsorbable nature ensures that the suture remains intact and functional over an extended period, providing consistent support and stability to the tissue being repaired.

The suture is non-adherent to tissue, making it ideal for use in skin closures where minimal adhesion is essential for proper healing and aesthetic outcomes. The bright blue color of the Prolene suture aids in easy visibility and identification, facilitating effective removal and ensuring that all sutures are accounted for.

Prolene sutures are known for their indefinite tensile strength retention, which means they maintain their mechanical properties over time, providing reliable support throughout the healing process.
