General ethicon product choosing guide:
ETHICON Products is a global leader in suture products and suture technology, and is one of the most
trecognisable and well respected brand names in the hospital environment.
Also within the ETHICON Products portfolio are other wound management and wound closure technologies
sdesigned to advance the standard of care in tissue repair and include the DERMABOND* Topical Skin Adhesive
e(2-Octyl Cyanoacrylate) family of products and a range of lightweight mesh and devices for hernia repair.
ETHICON Products needles are manufactured in a wide range of types, shapes, lengths and diameters.
The choice of the needle to be used must rest with the doctor, and may take into account several factors such
has the requirements of the specific procedure, the nature of the tissue to be sutured, the accessibility of the
eoperative area, and the preferred technique of each individual doctor.
| Taper Point ( Round Bodied) | The point profile of a taperpoint needle is engineered to provide easy penetration of intended tissues. |
| TAPERCUT Needle | This needle combines the initial penetration of a cutting needle with the minimised trauma of a round bodied needle. |
| CONVENTIONAL CUTTING | The CONVENTIONAL CUTTING Needle has a triangular cross section with the apex of the triangle on the inside of the needle curvature. These needles are ideal for skin closure |
| REVERSE CUTTING | The REVERSE CUTTING Needle also has a triangular cross section but the apex cutting edge is on the outside of the needle curvature. This improves the strength of the needle and its resistance to bending. Its flat surface closest to the edges of the incision reduces the chances of the suture cutting out. |
| PRIME Needle CONVENTIONAL CUTTING & REVERSE CUTTING | The PRIME Needle has been specifically designed for Doctors seeking excellence in skin closure. It incorporates a hollow form point design which reduces the angles of the cutting edges, producing an extremely sharp needle. Available in both Reverse Cutting and Conventional Cutting |
