Polypropylene sutures - Optilene® 6/0 (Precision tip)

Optilene® Polypropylene Sutures - 6/0 with Precision Tip: For High Precision Surgery

The Optilene® 6/0 Precision Tip sutures from B. Braun are the ideal choice for high precision surgery, where every detail matters. Made from non-absorbable polypropylene with a microtip precision point, these monofilament sutures are designed to ensure a gentle, secure, and reliable suture even in the most complex procedures. Optilene® 6/0 is perfect for interventions in cardiovascular surgery, ophthalmology, neurosurgery, and microsurgery, where visibility and optimal thread management are crucial.

What is Optilene® 6/0 with Precision Tip and Why Choose It?

Optilene® 6/0 with microtip is a highly resistant monofilament suture, specifically designed for surgical interventions where maximum precision and minimal invasiveness are required. The high-quality polypropylene ensures a low inflammatory response in tissues, while the blue color of the thread enhances visibility during the procedure. The precision tip of the DSMP11 has been developed to ensure an atraumatic passage, reducing the risk of tissue damage and optimizing overall performance during suturing.

Technical Features of Optilene® 6/0 with Precision Tip

• Gauge: 6/0, ideal for delicate surgery and interventions requiring absolute precision, such as those in ophthalmology and microsurgery.
• Needle: DSMP11, with a sharp triangular tip and 3/8 circle microtip, designed to ensure easy and atraumatic penetration into tissues.
• Length: 45 cm, a standard size that allows for great versatility during procedures.
• Composition: Polypropylene, a non-absorbable synthetic material that offers long-term strength and safety.
• Coating: Uncoated, to ensure maximum stability and control during suturing.
• Sterilization: Sterilized using ethylene oxide to ensure the absence of contamination.

Areas of Use: Applications of Optilene® 6/0 with Precision Tip

The Optilene® 6/0 with Precision Tip sutures are perfect for delicate surgical interventions, including:

• Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery: Ideal for procedures on soft and delicate tissues, particularly for closing aesthetic and reconstructive incisions.
• Microsurgery: The fineness of the thread and the microtip make it perfect for interventions on blood vessels, nerves, and microscopic tissues, where precision is essential.
• Ophthalmology: Used for eye surgeries, where it is essential to avoid damage to ocular tissues and maintain visibility.
• Vascular Surgery: For suturing thin blood vessels, maintaining tightness and reducing the risk of post-operative complications.
• Cardiac Surgery: For interventions on the heart and blood vessels, where strong and durable suturing is required.
• Neurosurgery: Perfect for suturing the nervous system and surrounding structures, minimizing the risk of nerve damage.

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

FEATURES OF THREADS:
