Description

Prolene Monofilament Suture, Blue, Size 3-0, 30", SH Needle is a sterile, nonabsorbable synthetic suture composed of an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene. This monofilament structure offers minimal tissue reactivity and ensures smooth passage through tissue. The 3-0 size provides a balance of strength and precision, making it suitable for delicate procedures.

Equipped with a taper point needle, this suture is designed for soft tissue penetration without cutting through tissue fibers. The SH (small half-circle) needle configuration enhances control and precision during placement. This design is particularly useful in applications requiring minimal tissue trauma, including cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological surgeries.

The suture is colored bright blue to enhance visibility during placement and facilitate easier identification and removal. The material's non-adherent properties reduce the risk of tissue embedding, making it ideal for skin closure and procedures requiring later suture removal.
