Description
Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE™ Undyed USP 4-0 (W9930) is engineered for procedures requiring reliable wound approximation with minimal long-term foreign material. Manufactured from polyglactin 910, this braided synthetic absorbable suture delivers excellent handling characteristics, 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 makes it particularly suitable for superficial closures and veterinary cases where suture removal may be impractical or undesirable.
The USP 4-0 suture size provides finer tissue handling for delicate skin and mucosal work, supporting improved cosmetic outcomes. The undyed suture material further reduces tissue marking, while the braided construction ensures consistent knot security and smooth handling.
Supplied with a 19 mm reverse cutting needle (3/8 circle), this configuration offers precise penetration of skin and firmer tissues with reduced risk of cut-out compared to conventional cutting needles. Individually sterile packed, VICRYL RAPIDE™ W9930 delivers trusted Ethicon performance for routine veterinary and medical wound closure.
