Description

The Non Returnable - Suture 6/0 18" Polypropylene P-3 13mm is a specialized medical suture designed for precise and secure wound closure in various surgical procedures. The suture features a 6/0 gauge, indicating its fine caliber, which is suitable for delicate and intricate tissue repair. Its 18-inch length provides ample material for extensive or complex closures, ensuring flexibility and ease of handling during surgical operations.

Constructed from polypropylene, this suture offers excellent strength and biocompatibility. Polypropylene is a synthetic polymer known for its low tissue reactivity and high tensile strength, making it an ideal choice for both internal and external surgical applications. The suture’s non-absorbable nature ensures long-lasting support and maintains wound integrity over time, which is crucial for optimal healing.

The P-3 needle attached to the suture has a 13mm curvature, designed for efficient penetration and maneuverability in various tissues. The needle’s design facilitates precise placement and minimizes tissue trauma, enhancing the overall efficacy of the suturing process. This characteristic is particularly valuable in delicate surgeries requiring meticulous techniques.
