Product Overview:
ETHILON® Sutures Size 3-0 are non-absorbable, monofilament surgical sutures made from black nylon. These sutures are designed for a wide range of general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures. The 18-inch length with a PS-2 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle makes them particularly suitable for delicate tissue repair where precision and minimal tissue reaction are essential.
Key Features:
- Non-Absorbable Monofilament:
- Made from high-quality nylon, ETHILON® sutures maintain tensile strength and are non-absorbable, providing long-term wound support without the need for removal in certain procedures.
- The monofilament design reduces tissue drag and minimizes tissue reaction, making it ideal for use in delicate tissues and areas prone to infection.
- Equipped with a PS-2 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle, ETHILON® sutures provide exceptional precision and ease of penetration, especially in tough or dense tissues.
- Offers excellent knot security, ensuring reliable wound closure and reducing the risk of wound dehiscence or suture failure.
