Meril Filaprop Suture 6-0 - PPL60 878 Pack of 12

The Meril Filaprop Suture is a sterile, monofilament, synthetic non-absorbable surgical suture designed for reliable soft tissue approximation and ligation. Composed of an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene, a synthetic linear polyolefin, this suture is biologically inert and elicits a minimal inflammatory reaction in tissues, gradually becoming encapsulated by fibrous connective tissue.

This polypropylene suture is intended for single use by healthcare professionals across all general populations, including infants, children, and adults. Its applications encompass general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, specifically in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures.

The monofilament construction of the Meril Filaprop Suture facilitates smooth passage through tissue, which helps to reduce trauma and supports precise wound closure. Its non-absorbable nature ensures long-term tissue support, making it suitable for wounds where minimal suture reaction is desired and in surgical sites that may become infected or contaminated, thereby minimizing the risk of sinus formation and suture extrusion.
