Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile, synthetic, rapidly absorbable surgical suture composed of polyglactin 910 and specially processed to accelerate absorption, providing short-term wound support during the early stages of healing.

This USP 8-0 violet suture is supplied in a 30 cm (12 inch) length and is armed with a single-armed GS-9 taper point needle measuring 9 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature, designed to provide precise, atraumatic penetration for microsurgical and fine soft tissue closure.

VICRYL RAPIDE sutures are absorbed more rapidly than standard VICRYL by hydrolysis, resulting in minimal tissue reaction and reducing the need for suture removal in appropriate cases. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12 for professional hospital and specialist surgical environments.
