The J443H Coated VICRYL® Suture is a high-quality, synthetic, absorbable surgical suture designed for a variety of surgical applications. Manufactured by Ethicon, a trusted name in surgical products, these sutures are known for their reliability, performance, and ease of use in the operating room.

Features:

• Size: 2-0
• Length: 27 inches (70 cm)
• Needle Type: FS-1 (3/8 Circle)
• Coating: The suture is coated to enhance smooth tissue passage and ease of handling. The coating typically includes Polyglactin 370 and Calcium Stearate, which help reduce tissue drag and improve knot security.
• Material: Made from a copolymer of 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide, VICRYL® Sutures provide excellent tensile strength and are absorbed by hydrolysis, ensuring minimal tissue reaction.
• Absorption Profile: The suture maintains approximately 50% of its tensile strength at two to three weeks post-implantation, with complete absorption usually occurring within 56 to 70 days.

Applications:

Coated VICRYL® Sutures are versatile and suitable for a wide range of procedures, including:

• General closure
• Gynecological surgery
• Gastrointestinal surgery
• Skin closure
• Orthopedic surgery

Benefits:

• Smooth Handling: The coated surface allows for smooth passage through tissue, reducing trauma and minimizing tissue drag.
• Reliable Performance: Known for consistent performance, these sutures provide dependable knot security and predictable absorption rates.
• Minimal Tissue Reaction: As an absorbable suture, VICRYL® minimizes the risk of long-term foreign body reactions, making it ideal for internal use where long-term presence of sutures is not desired.
• Ease of Use: The FS-1 needle is designed for precision and control, allowing surgeons to perform delicate suturing with confidence.
