@surgicalrnguides: Prolene is the main type of suture you will see used in vascular cases. The reasons for the use of prolene include its tensile strength (it can withstand great force before breaking) and its non absorbable characteristic (you want the stitch to be permanently there to hold the anastomosis for blood vessels). #healthcare #nurses #nursing #surgery

Why does it come double armed? And when are we suppose to cut the second end of the needle?
