Ethicon Vicryl #5-0 Absorbable Violet Braided Suture is a surgical marvel crafted from polyglactin 910, a synthetic material comprising 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide. This suture, with its fine size indicated by “#5-0,” is tailored for precision in delicate surgical procedures. Its vibrant violet hue distinguishes it in the operating room, aiding surgeons during intricate tasks. The braided structure offers exceptional flexibility and ease of handling, ensuring secure knot-tying and tension management without concern for suture breakage, even in delicate tissues. What sets it apart is its absorbable nature, gradually breaking down through hydrolysis as the body heals. This eliminates the need for post-surgery suture removal, simplifying patient recovery and reducing discomfort. Ethicon Vicryl #5-0 is a versatile and reliable surgical tool, combining biocompatibility, strength, and ease of use to enhance surgical outcomes and patient well-being.
