Product Overview
The Covidien Biosyn SM-3626 is an absorbable monofilament suture with a pre-attached P-10 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting needle, designed for optimal surgical performance. This 5-0 suture offers reliable wound closure with minimal tissue reaction due to its polyester-based Biosyn material, which provides predictable absorption. The stainless steel needle ensures sharp penetration and precision, while the uncoated monofilament construction reduces drag and enhances handling.

- Absorbable – Gradually breaks down in the body over time.
- Monofilament – Smooth, single-strand design for reduced tissue trauma.
- P-10 Needle – 3/8 circle precision reverse cutting shape for controlled suturing.
- Stainless Steel Needle – Durable and sharp for precise penetration.
- Uncoated – Minimizes drag for smooth passage through tissue.
