Description
The Vicryl Coated Braided Undyed Suture, Size 3-0, 18" with a PC-5 needle, is a versatile surgical suture designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is particularly suitable for use in ophthalmic procedures, providing a reliable option for delicate surgeries.
This suture features a braided structure with a coated finish that enhances ease of knot tying and ensures knot security on the first throw. The coating helps the suture maintain its integrity and performance throughout the procedure, making it an excellent choice for various surgical applications.
Commonly used in general tissue and muscle approximation, reproductive tract surgeries, and ophthalmic procedures, this suture also serves as a second choice for orthopedic applications. Its braided design provides optimal handling characteristics and minimal tissue drag, contributing to effective suturing and patient outcomes.
The Vicryl Coated Braided Undyed Suture experiences a loss of approximately 50% of its tensile strength after three weeks. This characteristic is important for ensuring that the suture maintains its strength during the critical healing period while eventually being absorbed by the body.
