Description
Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE™ Undyed USP 4-0 (W9924) is engineered for procedures requiring dependable wound approximation with minimal long-term foreign material. Manufactured from polyglactin 910, this braided synthetic absorbable suture offers excellent handling, secure knot placement, and a predictable, fast absorption profile.
VICRYL RAPIDE™ retains approximately 50% tensile strength at 5 days, with minimal remaining strength by 14 days, and is typically fully absorbed within 42 days. This rapid absorption profile supports reduced follow-up intervention and improved patient comfort—particularly advantageous in veterinary patients and outpatient settings.
The USP 4-0 suture size is well suited to delicate tissue work, supporting improved cosmetic outcomes. The undyed suture material helps minimise tissue marking, while the braided construction ensures reliable knot security and consistent handling. Supplied with a 16 mm conventional cutting needle (3/8 circle), this configuration provides efficient penetration and precise control in smaller or confined surgical sites.
Individually sterile packed, VICRYL RAPIDE™ W9924 delivers trusted Ethicon performance for routine veterinary and medical wound closure.
