Product Title

Ethicon VR845 VICRYL RAPIDE™ (Polyglactin 910) Suture, Precision Cosmetic Conventional Cutting PRIME, PC-3 16mm 3/8 Circle, Undyed Braided 18" (45cm), Size 4-0, Box of 12

Product Description

The Ethicon VR845 VICRYL RAPIDE™ Suture is an absorbable, synthetic braided surgical suture designed for rapid wound support and predictable absorption. VICRYL RAPIDE sutures are commonly used for superficial soft tissue approximation, particularly in skin closure where short-term wound support is sufficient.

This configuration features a Precision Cosmetic Conventional Cutting PRIME PC-3 needle (16mm, 3/8 circle) designed for precise, controlled penetration in delicate cosmetic and skin closure procedures. The undyed braided polyglactin 910 material with coating enhances handling, knot security, and smooth tissue passage.

VICRYL RAPIDE sutures typically provide wound support for approximately 7–10 days and are fully absorbed more rapidly than standard VICRYL sutures, reducing the need for suture removal in appropriate applications.
