As an advanced variant within Ethicon's specialized cardiovascular portfolio, this configuration features proprietary \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"275\"\u003eHEMOSEAL Technology\u003c\/b\u003e. Hemoseal features a tapered needle-to-suture attachment zone where the swage diameter is significantly reduced to closely match the true diameter of the size 5-0 suture strand. By effectively bridging the gap between the needle track and the trailing thread, this design substantially reduces needle-hole leakage and suture-line bleeding at crucial vascular attachment points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eThis specialized micro-surgical configuration features a fine size 5-0 gauge thread diameter dyed phthalocyanine blue for optimal visual tracking. The single continuous 36-inch (91 cm) monofilament strand is delivered as a double-armed system, swaged on both ends to 17 mm RB-1 style taper point needles. The non-cutting round body geometry of the RB-1 needles pushes fragile tissue fibers apart instead of slicing them, making the HS8556H an exceptional selection for cardiovascular bypass procedures, delicate vascular anastomoses, and specialized soft tissue approximations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/b\u003e Ethicon (Johnson and Johnson Medical Division)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eProduct Brand Family:\u003c\/b\u003e PROLENE Polypropylene Suture Matrix with HEMOSEAL Technology\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eProduct Catalog Code (MPN):\u003c\/b\u003e HS8556H\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSuture Material Composition:\u003c\/b\u003e Isotactic Crystalline Polypropylene\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eStrand Structural Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e Monofilament (Smooth extrusion profile, zero capillary tracking risks)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThread Sizing Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Size 5-0 Suture (Fine USP 5-0 Gauge \/ Metric 1.0)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,6,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,6,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSuture Length Dimension:\u003c\/b\u003e 36 inches (Approximately 91 cm single continuous strand layout)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,7,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,7,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eColor Pigment Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Phthalocyanine Blue (Dyed for maximum contrast against red tissue beds and active bleeding)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,8,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,8,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNeedle Configuration:\u003c\/b\u003e Double-Armed (Swaged to identical surgical needles on both ends of the strand)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,9,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,9,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNeedle Type Classification:\u003c\/b\u003e RB-1 Taper Point (Round body profile, completely non-cutting geometry)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,10,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,10,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNeedle Curvature Geometry:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\/2 Circle curvature tracking radius\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,11,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,11,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNeedle Length Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e 17 mm structural length\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,12,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,12,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePackaging Matrix Configuration:\u003c\/b\u003e Standard box containing 36 sterile individual suture packets (H-box distribution unit)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,13,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,13,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAbsorption Profile Cycle:\u003c\/b\u003e Strictly Non-Absorbable (Provides permanent structural tissue encapsulation with zero degradation over time)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ethicon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48409600327905,"sku":"ETHIHS8556H","price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/0527\/8543\/files\/HS8556H.png?v=1781019214","url":"https:\/\/primismedical.com\/en-cn\/products\/ethicon-prolene-hs8556h-suture-size-5-0-36-blue-monofilament-polypropylene-rb-1-needle-box-of-36","provider":"Primis Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
