Additional Information
Description
The Vicryl Undyed 5-0 18 PS2 Suture is a high-quality surgical suture specifically designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is particularly useful in various medical procedures, including ophthalmic surgery, where precision and reliability are paramount. This suture is not recommended for use in cardiovascular or neurological tissues due to its absorption characteristics and strength profile.
Featuring a coated braided structure, the Vicryl Undyed 5-0 offers excellent ease of knot tying and enhanced knot security on the first throw. This ensures reliable performance and minimizes the risk of knot slippage during surgical procedures. The suture is often employed in general tissue and muscle approximation, ligatures, reproductive tract surgeries, and ophthalmic or orthopedic applications, where its unique properties can be best utilized.
One notable feature of this suture is its loss of 50% tensile strength after three weeks, with complete mass absorption occurring between 56 to 76 days. This predictable absorption timeline makes it a preferred choice for surgeries where temporary support is required without leaving long-term material in the body.
