Description
Suture, Vicryl Coated Braided Undyed 4-0 18 PS2 is a sterile, absorbable surgical thread made from polyglactin 910, a synthetic copolymer derived from glycolide and lactide. This composition ensures excellent tensile strength and knot security during soft tissue approximation and ligation procedures. The suture's braided structure enhances handling, allowing for smooth passage through tissues and secure knot tying, critical for effective wound closure.
The undyed nature of the Vicryl suture minimizes tissue reactivity and inflammation, promoting faster healing and reducing the risk of adverse reactions. As an absorbable suture, it is gradually hydrolyzed and metabolized by the body over an approximate period of 56 to 70 days, depending on the site of placement and patient factors. This predictable absorption profile eliminates the need for suture removal post-surgery, enhancing patient comfort and reducing the risk of complications associated with foreign body presence.
Vicryl Coated Braided Undyed 4-0 18 PS2 is particularly suitable for a variety of surgical applications, including ophthalmic, general soft tissue, and subcuticular wound closure. Its versatility and biocompatibility make it well-suited for delicate procedures where minimizing tissue trauma and promoting optimal healing are paramount.
