Description:
The Healthium Trusilk USP 3‑0 Reel is a sterile, non‑absorbable surgical suture composed of tightly braided natural silk fibers coated with wax/silicone. Designed for high knot security and smooth tissue passage, it offers exceptional handling and minimal friction, essential for precise wound closure in mucosal and intertriginous areas. The 3/8‑circle reverse‑cutting needle (≈26 mm) supports secure, clean cuts through dense tissue, making it ideal in general, ophthalmic, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and orthopedic procedures. Ethylene‑oxide sterilization and a stable five‑year shelf life ensure clinical readiness. Each reel is color‑coded (black or ivory) for easy identification and packaged in twelve individual sterile foils to uphold hygiene standards.
