The Ethicon Prolene Sutures are premium non-absorbable surgical sutures designed for precise wound closure. These sutures are composed of coated polyester braided green sutures and offer exceptional tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction.
Why Choose Ethicon Ethibond Excel Sutures?
-
High Tensile Strength: The braided construction of Polyester sutures ensures reliable wound closure and supports healing over extended periods.
-
Non-Absorbable Material: Designed to maintain long-term wound support without being absorbed by the body. Suitable for applications where prolonged suture presence is required.
-
Excellent Handling and Knot Security: The Polybutylene coating and braided structure make handling easier and knots more secure which reduces the risk of knot breakage or slippage.
-
Minimal Tissue Reaction: Polyester material minimises tissue irritation and inflammation. Ideal for patients with sensitivities to other suture materials.
-
Green Colour for Enhanced Visibility: The distinct green colour of Polyester sutures enhances visibility against tissue, aiding surgeons in accurate placement and reducing the likelihood of suture remnants.
