PROLENE Polypropylene Suture with PS-3 Needle offers unparalleled quality and reliability for a wide range of surgical applications. Recommended by healthcare professionals, this nonabsorbable, monofilament suture is designed for the precise approximation and ligation of soft tissues in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological surgeries. Engineered to provide exceptional handling and knot security, the PROLENE® suture is a trusted choice for surgeons requiring a durable suture that maintains tensile strength indefinitely. Its vibrant blue color enhances visibility against tissue to assist surgeons during procedures and in follow-up suture removal. Furthermore, the suture's smooth surface minimizes tissue trauma and ensures it runs smoothly through tissue with minimal drag.
