Ethicon SXP54N 2-0 Ethibond EXCEL 10X30" V-5 ETHALLOY BX/6

Ethicon ETHIBOND EXCEL® 2-0 Suture | SXP54N | 17mm V-5 TAPERCUT™ | 30" 5-Green/5-White | BX/6

The Ethicon SXP54N is a specialized, high-capacity suture pack designed for complex reconstructions requiring multiple points of permanent fixation. Composed of high-strength braided polyester and coated with Polybutylate, this Size 2-0 suture offers the perfect balance of tensile durability and "monofilament-like" smoothness.

This specific "Surgical Specialty" pack contains 10 strands of 30-inch suture per foil—5 Green and 5 White—allowing for effortless suture management and limb identification in multi-suture procedures. Each strand is armed with a V-5 TAPERCUT™ needle crafted from ETHALLOY®, providing the structural rigidity needed to penetrate tough cardiovascular or orthopedic tissue without bending.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• ETHALLOY® V-5 Precision: The V-5 needle utilizes advanced surgical steel that is up to 40% more resistant to bending than standard needles. Its TAPERCUT™ geometry allows for easy entry through calcified or fibrous tissue while maintaining a leak-proof taper-fit in the tissue tract.

• Color-Coded Tracing: The 5-Green/5-White distribution is critical for "parachuting" heart valves or organizing multi-row rotator cuff repairs, significantly reducing the risk of tangling or cross-knotting limbs.

• High-Efficiency Multipack: By providing 10 needles and strands in a single sterile foil, the SXP54N streamlines the operative field, reduces packaging waste, and minimizes the time spent opening individual sutures during long procedures.

• Permanent Structural Integrity: Being non-absorbable and resistant to hydrolysis, ETHIBOND EXCEL® provides indefinite support for prosthetic implants, annuloplasty rings, or ligamentous grafts.

• Superior Braided Handling: The Polybutylate coating ensures the heavy braid glides through tissue without the "sawing" effect, while the braided core provides the industry's most reliable knot security.
