The Ethicon Y416H 3-0 Monocryl suture is a synthetic absorbable monofilament designed for soft tissue approximation and ligation. This specific product features a 3-0 gauge Monocryl suture that is 27 inches in length, offering flexibility and precision in surgical procedures. The monofilament structure minimizes tissue drag and promotes smooth passage through tissues, reducing trauma and facilitating healing. The suture is mounted on a 26 mm SH (Surgical, Half-circle) needle, which is a taper point needle ideal for use in delicate, soft tissue surgeries, such as subcuticular closures or gastrointestinal procedures. The SH needle ensures controlled penetration and reliable strength, while the 3-0 size provides a balance between strength and finesse, suitable for medium to fine tissue approximation. The ETHALLOY needle alloy contributes to superior sharpness and resistance to bending or breakage during suturing. Monocryl sutures are composed of poliglecaprone 25, a material known for its reliable absorption profile and minimal inflammatory response. The absorption of the suture typically completes within 91 to 119 days, with significant tensile strength maintained for approximately 1 to 2 weeks post-implantation. Packaged in a box of 36 sterile units, the Ethicon Y416H is widely used in both hospital and outpatient surgical settings due to its ease of handling, knot security, and predictable performance in wound healing.
