Description

Ethicon Johnson NW889 Prolene Sutures USP 5-0 are synthetic, non-absorbable monofilament sutures manufactured from polypropylene. These sutures are designed for reliable soft tissue approximation where long-term wound support and minimal tissue reaction are required. The monofilament structure enables smooth passage through tissues with reduced drag. Equipped with a 3/8 circle reverse cutting Ethiprime needle, the suture allows precise penetration of tough tissues while maintaining controlled handling. The Ethiprime coating improves needle passage by reducing friction, supporting efficient and accurate suturing. Prolene sutures provide indefinite breaking strength retention, making them suitable for procedures requiring extended tensile support.
