Optilene® 3/0 Polypropylene Sutures: Precision and Reliability in Surgery

The Optilene® 3/0 sutures by B. Braun are an ideal choice for surgical procedures that require precision and safety. Made from monofilament polypropylene and featuring a distinctive blue color, these sutures ensure optimal visibility during operations. Thanks to their monofilament structure, they provide an atraumatic passage through tissues, reducing the risk of damage and promoting rapid healing.

Advantages of Optilene® 3/0 Sutures

The main feature of Optilene® 3/0 is its high tensile strength, which ensures a secure hold throughout the healing process. The suture is designed for excellent sliding during knot tying, ensuring knot security and minimizing the risk of loosening. Additionally, the low inflammatory reaction in tissues promotes quick and uncomplicated healing.

Product Details

Each suture has a length of 45 cm and is mounted with a DS19 triangular cutting needle 3/8 circle. Sterilization with ethylene oxide ensures maximum safety, while the non-absorbable suture guarantees lasting hold.

Note: Optilene® by Bbraun is equivalent to the Prolene suture by Ethicon/Premilene Bbraun.
