Description

Prolene Monofilament Suture, Blue, Size 4-0, 30", Rb-1 Needle is a nonabsorbable surgical suture designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It features a taper point needle that allows for smooth passage through tissues, minimizing trauma during suturing. The monofilament construction provides a single smooth strand, reducing tissue drag and promoting easier handling.

This suture is widely used in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures where precision and minimal tissue reaction are critical. Its non-adherent surface prevents the suture from sticking to tissue, which is particularly beneficial for skin closure, allowing for effective healing and reducing the risk of infection or irritation.

The bright blue color enhances visibility during surgery, facilitating accurate placement and easy identification for subsequent removal. This visual advantage aids surgeons in monitoring the suture line and ensuring complete removal once healing is adequate.
