Description
Coated Vicryl Rapide Suture is an absorbable braided suture designed for rapid absorption in soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is composed of a synthetic polymer that provides initial tensile strength comparable to Nylon and Gut sutures, ensuring reliable wound support during the critical early healing phase.
The suture is coated to enhance smooth passage through tissue, minimizing trauma and improving handling characteristics during surgical procedures. Its undyed, natural appearance is suited for cases where visibility of the suture material is less critical. The taper point needle facilitates precise tissue penetration with minimal resistance, promoting atraumatic suturing.
Vicryl Rapide elicits a lower tissue inflammatory response compared to chromic gut sutures, reducing postoperative discomfort and promoting faster healing. Its rapid absorption profile allows complete suture breakdown within approximately 42 days, making it suitable for superficial soft tissue closures that require short-term wound support.
