Description

Needle hole bleeding is a reality of vessel anastomosis and occurs even when ideal suturing techniques are used. Bleeding at the suture line can increase intraoperative blood loss as well as prolonged operating time. During surgery, bleeding can disrupt a clear surgical field and hinder visualization when you need it most. The unique design of PROLENE Suture with HEMO-SEAL technology tapers down the suture at the swage site, allowing a thinner needle to be attached, resulting in a reduced needle-to-suture diameter ratio. This enhanced ratio enables the suture to more completely fill the hole, leading to a significantly reduced leak rate.
