Description
The Vicryl Coated Braided Undyed Suture, size 6-0 with an 18-inch length and P1 needle, is a high-performance suture designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is particularly suitable for use in ophthalmic procedures but is not recommended for cardiovascular or neurological tissues. The suture’s primary applications include general tissue and muscle approximation, ligatures, and procedures involving the reproductive tract, ophthalmic surgeries, and orthopedic procedures as a secondary option.
This suture is engineered to offer ease of knot tying and exceptional knot security, particularly on the first throw. The coating and braided design enhance handling characteristics and minimize tissue drag, which contributes to reliable and secure knot formation during surgical procedures.
The Vicryl suture provides a consistent and dependable performance in a range of surgical applications. It is noted for its loss of approximately 50% tensile strength after three weeks, which supports its suitability for procedures requiring temporary support and rapid tissue healing.
