J & Healthcare Systems - Coated Vicryl - J566G - Suture, Vio Br Ct 7-0 12" Tg1408

The Coated Vicryl Suture (J566G) by J & Healthcare Systems is a high-quality absorbable surgical suture designed for precise wound closure. Made from polyglactin 910, this braided suture is coated for smooth handling and reduced tissue drag, ensuring optimal performance during suturing. The violet-colored suture comes pre-attached to a 3/8 circle spatula needle (Tg140-8), sized 7-0, making it ideal for delicate procedures requiring fine, controlled suturing.

Features:
- Absorbable: Gradually breaks down in the body, eliminating the need for suture removal.
- Coated Construction: Minimizes tissue resistance for smoother passage and knot security.
- Braided Design: Enhances tensile strength and handling precision.
- Pre-Attached Needle: 3/8 circle spatula needle (Tg140-8) for accurate placement in ophthalmic or microsurgical applications.
- Violet Color: Provides high visibility against tissue for easier identification.

Specifications:
- Material: Polyglactin 910 (Coated Vicryl)
- Needle Type: 3/8 Circle Spatula (Tg140-8)
- Suture Size: 7-0
- Length: 12 inches
- Absorption Profile: Typically retains strength for 56 days, with complete absorption by 90 days.

Suggested Use:
This suture is particularly suited for ophthalmic surgery, plastic surgery, and other fine tissue approximation where minimal tissue reaction and precise wound closure are critical. Its absorbable nature and fine gauge make it an excellent choice for procedures requiring temporary support with reliable absorption. Store in a dry, cool environment and ensure sterile handling before use.
