MEDIPAC Surgical Sutures PROPYLEN (Blue monofilament, non absorbable, polypropylen surgical suture)

MEDIPAC Surgical Sutures PROPYLEN (Blue monofilament, non absorbable, polypropylen surgical suture)PROPYLEN is a sterile non absorbable monofilament surgical sututre made from an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene (CH3H6)n. It is dyed blue with Phthalocyanine ( 2) copper. The amount of the dye is less than 0. 5% of the total suture weight. PROPYLEN surgical sututres are used for soft tissues approximation and ligation, even in ophthalmic, cardiovascular and neurological procedures. As it is relatively biologically inert its use is

PROPYLEN is a sterile non absorbable monofilament surgical sututre made from an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene (CH3H6)n. It is dyed blue with Phthalocyanine (-2) copper. The amount of the dye is less than 0.5% of the total suture weight.

PROPYLEN surgical sututres are used for soft tissues approximation and ligation, even in ophthalmic, cardiovascular and neurological procedures.

As it is relatively biologically inert its use is recommended in cases where minimal tissue reaction is desired. It is especially recommended for use in infected wounds or in wounds with high risk of later infection. PROPYLEN suture is not adherent to the tissues and it can be removed easily and painlessly. Therefore it can be used as a pull out suture.
