Aqmen - AM883 - Sutures AM883 AqLene Prolene Type USP 1-12 Foils

The Aqmen AM883 is a non-absorbable surgical suture composed of polypropylene, presented in a blue color for enhanced visibility. This suture is designed for permanent wound support, meaning it is intended to remain in the tissue indefinitely, providing long-term tensile strength. Each unit contains 100 cm of suture material, which is a size USP 1.

The suture is pre-attached to a 45 mm needle, specifically a 1/2 circle reverse cutting heavy type. This needle configuration is engineered for efficient penetration through tough tissues, making it suitable for procedures requiring significant tissue resistance. The product is supplied in a box containing 12 individual foil-wrapped units, ensuring sterility and ease of dispensing in a clinical setting.

The polypropylene material offers a smooth passage through tissue, minimizing drag and trauma during closure. Its inert nature also contributes to a low tissue reaction profile, which is crucial for long-term implantation.
