Description

The Suture, Monocryl Vio Mono 4/0 18", is a high-quality monofilament suture designed for efficient wound closure in surgical procedures. Made from a synthetic absorbable material, this suture offers excellent strength and reliability during the initial healing period. The monofilament construction ensures smooth passage through tissue, minimizing trauma and reducing the risk of infection.

With a 4/0 size, the Monocryl Vio Mono suture is ideal for delicate tissue approximation, providing precise control and handling. The 18-inch length allows for versatility in various surgical applications, making it suitable for both superficial and deeper tissue closures. Its violet color enhances visibility during suturing, assisting surgeons in achieving accurate placement and secure knots.

Monocryl sutures are designed to maintain their tensile strength during the critical wound healing phase, gradually losing strength as tissue repair progresses. This controlled absorption profile supports optimal healing by providing necessary support initially and minimizing foreign body presence as the wound heals. The absorbable nature of the suture eliminates the need for suture removal, reducing patient discomfort and follow-up visits.

• For general soft-tissue approximation and ligation
• Monocryl (poliglecaprone 25) is a monofilament suture thats both absorbable, with low tissue reactivity, and synthetic for long-lasting tensile strength
• Less likely to exit through the skin after breakdown that some other sutures
