Description

The Undyed Coated Vicryl 6-0 Ps-3 18" Suture is designed for use in general soft tissue approximation and ligation. It is commonly utilized in ophthalmic procedures, providing reliable performance without suitability for cardiovascular or neurological tissues. This suture’s material and construction offer precise and secure tissue closure.

Knot tying is facilitated by the suture’s excellent handling characteristics, ensuring knot security on the first throw. This feature is essential for surgical efficiency and maintaining tissue approximation under various clinical conditions. The coating improves smooth passage through tissue, reducing trauma during suturing.

Typical applications include general tissue and muscle approximation, ligatures, reproductive tract surgeries, and ophthalmic procedures. It is also a secondary choice for orthopedic surgeries due to its absorbable properties and tensile strength retention. The suture’s design supports a wide range of surgical needs while promoting optimal healing.

• Coated Vicryl (polyglactin 910) is both absorbable and synthetic for long-lasting tensile strength
• For general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including use in ophthalmic procedures
