Complete 3-Component Sterile Kit

Each kit contains a carefully selected set of professional-grade instruments and supplies arranged in sequence of use for maximum procedural efficiency. The kit includes one 4.5-inch plastic Littauer scissors featuring precision-molded blades designed specifically for clean suture cutting, one 4-inch plastic thumb forceps for secure suture grasping and removal, and one 12-ply woven gauze pad (3" x 3") for wound care and cleanup. This streamlined component selection eliminates unnecessary items while ensuring clinicians have exactly what they need for successful suture removal.

Engineered for Clinical Efficiency and Value

This suture removal tray was meticulously designed in collaboration with experienced medical staff to optimize component selection, streamline workflows, and eliminate unnecessary waste. Every item included serves a specific purpose in the suture removal procedure, reducing excess supplies while ensuring clinicians have the essential tools for safe, effective suture removal. This thoughtful design approach helps healthcare facilities control costs without compromising on quality or patient care standards, making it an ideal choice for high-volume clinical environments where cost-effectiveness is critical.

Sequenced Packaging for Streamlined Procedures

Components are strategically packaged in the order they will be used during the suture removal procedure, allowing clinicians to progress smoothly and efficiently through each step without searching for supplies or breaking sterile technique. This intelligent packaging design reduces procedure time, minimizes the risk of contamination, and supports standardized clinical protocols across your facility. The intuitive layout is especially valuable in busy clinical settings where efficiency directly impacts patient throughput, satisfaction, and overall practice productivity.

Plastic Littauer Scissors for Precise Suture Cutting

The included 4.5-inch plastic Littauer scissors are specifically engineered for suture removal applications, featuring a specialized blade design that allows for precise cutting close to the skin surface without causing tissue trauma. The lightweight plastic construction provides comfortable handling and excellent control during delicate procedures, while the precision-molded blades ensure consistent performance and clean cuts through various suture materials including nylon, silk, polypropylene, and synthetic polymers. The ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during multiple consecutive suture removals in busy clinical sessions.

Plastic Thumb Forceps for Safe Suture Handling

The 4-inch plastic thumb forceps provide reliable grasping capability for securely holding and lifting sutures during removal without slipping or tissue damage. The plastic construction is gentle on tissue while providing sufficient grip strength for effective suture manipulation and extraction. The smooth, rounded tips minimize patient discomfort and reduce the risk of tissue trauma during the removal process, making the procedure more comfortable for patients while maintaining clinical effectiveness and control for practitioners.

High-Quality Woven Gauze for Wound Care

The included 12-ply woven gauze pad (3" x 3") offers superior absorbency for managing any minor bleeding or exudate that may occur during or after suture removal. The multi-ply construction provides excellent absorption capacity while maintaining structural integrity when wet. The gauze also serves as a clean surface for organizing removed sutures during the procedure and for gentle cleansing of the wound site after suture removal is complete.

Single-Use Design for Maximum Safety

As a single-use, disposable kit, this product eliminates the risks associated with instrument reprocessing and cross-contamination between patients. Each kit is individually packaged and sterilized, ensuring optimal infection control compliance and reducing the burden on central sterile processing departments. The disposable design also eliminates concerns about instrument wear, damage, or incomplete sterilization that can occur with reusable instruments, providing consistent quality and performance with every use.

Latex-Free for Patient and Provider Safety

This suture removal kit is not made with natural rubber latex, making it safe for use with latex-sensitive patients and healthcare workers. Facilities can confidently use this kit across all patient populations without risk of allergic reactions or latex-related complications, supporting inclusive care delivery, workplace safety initiatives, and compliance with latex-free protocols in sensitive care environments.

FSA/HSA Eligible Medical Supply

As a qualified medical expense, this suture removal kit is eligible for purchase using Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) funds, providing cost-effective procurement options for both healthcare facilities and individual practitioners managing their medical supply budgets.

Economical Solution for High-Volume Practices

At an exceptional price point, this kit delivers outstanding value for practices performing frequent suture removals. The streamlined 3-component design reduces per-procedure costs while maintaining quality and safety standards, making it ideal for urgent care centers, primary care offices, dermatology practices, and other high-volume clinical settings where cost control is essential.
