Professional Sterile Suture Removal Kit for Clinical Excellence

The McKesson Sterile Suture Removal Kit is a comprehensive, single-use surgical kit designed to provide healthcare professionals with all the essential instruments and supplies needed for safe, efficient suture removal procedures. This complete 5-piece kit arrives sterile and ready to use, streamlining clinical workflows while maintaining the highest standards of patient safety and infection control.

Complete 5-Component Sterile Kit

Each kit contains a carefully curated selection of professional-grade instruments and supplies arranged in sequence of use for maximum procedural efficiency. The kit includes one 4.5-inch metal Littauer scissors featuring precision-ground blades designed specifically for clean suture cutting, one 4-inch plastic thumb forceps for secure suture grasping and removal, one 12-ply woven gauze pad (3" x 3") for wound care and cleanup, one sterile alcohol prep pad for antiseptic site preparation, and one non-sterile PVP prep pad for additional cleansing needs.

Engineered for Clinical Efficiency and Value

This suture removal tray was meticulously designed in collaboration with experienced medical staff to optimize component selection and eliminate unnecessary waste. Every item included serves a specific purpose in the suture removal procedure, reducing excess supplies while ensuring clinicians have exactly what they need. This thoughtful design approach helps healthcare facilities control costs without compromising on quality or patient care standards, making it an economical choice for high-volume clinical settings.

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 and satisfaction.

Premium Metal Littauer Scissors for Precision Cutting

The included 4.5-inch metal Littauer scissors are specifically engineered for suture removal applications, featuring a specialized blade design that allows for precise cutting close to the skin surface. The durable metal construction ensures consistent performance and clean cuts through various suture materials including nylon, silk, polypropylene, and synthetic polymers. The ergonomic handle design provides comfortable grip and excellent control during delicate procedures, reducing hand fatigue during multiple consecutive suture removals.

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. The plastic construction is gentle on tissue while providing sufficient grip strength for effective suture manipulation. 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.

Comprehensive Wound Care and Prep Supplies

The kit includes both sterile and non-sterile prep pads to support complete site preparation and post-removal care. The sterile alcohol prep pad provides antiseptic cleansing before and after suture removal, helping prevent infection and maintain aseptic technique in accordance with best practices. The 12-ply woven gauze pad offers superior absorbency for managing any minor bleeding or exudate, while also serving as a clean surface for organizing removed sutures during the procedure.

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.

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 and workplace safety initiatives.
