The Ethicon Vicryl Plus Coated Suture is an innovative, absorbable suture specially designed to support smooth, reliable wound closure. Made from a unique synthetic, braided material, Vicryl Plus combines advanced antimicrobial properties with optimal handling performance, making it ideal for both general and specialized surgical procedures. The suture’s coating contains triclosan, an antimicrobial agent, which helps reduce the risk of infection at the surgical site.

Features and Benefits:

• Antimicrobial Protection: Embedded with triclosan, an FDA-approved antimicrobial agent, Vicryl Plus actively reduces the risk of bacterial colonization on the suture, minimizing infection risks and supporting faster, safer healing.
• Reliable Absorption: The suture offers predictable absorption, typically fully absorbed within 56-70 days post-implantation, giving surgeons confidence in its performance for short- to medium-term wound support.
• Braided Structure for Strength and Flexibility: The braided construction ensures high tensile strength while providing a soft, pliable structure that’s easy to handle and tie. The suture maintains knot security, even in challenging anatomical areas.
