Description
Suture, Vicryl Plus VL BR 2/0 27 is a synthetic, absorbable surgical thread composed of polyglactin 910, designed for use in various surgical procedures requiring soft tissue approximation and ligation. The "VL BR" designation indicates that it features Vicryl Plus technology, enhancing its performance with an antibacterial coating that helps reduce the risk of surgical site infections. This makes it particularly suitable for procedures where infection prevention is critical.
Polyglactin 910 is chosen for its biocompatibility and predictable absorption profile, typically absorbed by hydrolysis over a period of 56 to 70 days. This characteristic eliminates the need for suture removal post-operatively, reducing patient discomfort and optimizing wound healing outcomes.
The 2/0 size and 27-inch length of the suture provide versatility for a wide range of surgical techniques, ensuring secure and reliable tissue closure. The needle configuration, which varies based on manufacturer specifications, typically features a cutting edge that facilitates smooth tissue penetration and minimizes trauma during suturing.
