VICRYL PLUS BRAIDED - Absorbable Sterile Surgical Suture

Ethicon Vicryl Plus sutures are indicated for approximation and/or ligation of soft tissues, with the exception of ophthalmic, cardiovascular and neurological tissues.

Ethicon VicrylPlus sutures provide numerous benefits:
- In vitro tests show that it kills bacteria and inhibits bacterial colonization of sutures.

Vicryl Plus has benefits in several surgical applications:
- In vivo tensile strength that allows it to provide support for 14 - 28 days, while tissue healing
- Multifilament structure provides greater adaptability than monofilament sutures, as well as unsurpassed knotting ability
- Thanks to the coating and properties of the polymer, the frictional force is reduced to a minimum, ensuring excellent sliding and positioning of the knot
- The hydrolysis process causes only a minimal tissue reaction during absorption
- In vitro tests show that it kills bacteria and inhibits bacterial colonization of sutures; protects against colonization by bacteria commonly associated with SSIs, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus Methicillin-resistant (MRSA), Staphylococcus epidermidis Methicillin-resistant (MRSE)
