Ethicon PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Surgical Suture EP8610H

This PROLENE Polypropylene Blue Non-Absorbable Cardiovascular Suture, product code EP8610H, is engineered for vascular and cardiovascular procedures requiring precision, consistent needle performance and long-term tensile strength. Manufactured from non-absorbable polypropylene monofilament, PROLENE provides smooth tissue passage, minimal inflammatory response and permanent wound support.

The USP 6-0 diameter is suitable for delicate vascular structures requiring refined handling and controlled tension. The 24 inch (61 cm) strand length in a double-armed configuration supports symmetrical suturing and efficient vascular anastomosis techniques.

This suture is supplied double-armed with two 11 mm BV taper point EVERPOINT cardiovascular needles. Constructed to maintain sustained sharpness through repeated passes, EVERPOINT Technology supports consistent penetration performance in vascular tissue. The taper point configuration allows atraumatic fibre separation rather than cutting, reducing tissue trauma during vessel approximation. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 36, this product is intended for professional cardiovascular surgical environments requiring dependable non-absorbable closure.
