Ethicon VCP727D 0 COATED VICRYL PLUS VIOLET 8X18" CT-2 CR Box of 12

Ethicon VCP727D 0 Coated VICRYL Plus Violet Suture | CT-2 Control Release | Box of 12

The Ethicon VCP727D is a heavy-duty Coated VICRYL® Plus (Polyglactin 910) synthetic absorbable suture, specifically designed for high-tension tissue approximation and infection control. This Size 0 violet braided suture is integrated with Irga care® MP (Triclosan) to provide an active antibacterial zone of inhibition against common SSI-causing pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA. A standout feature of this model is the Control Release™ (CR) technology, allowing surgeons to "pop off" the needle with a quick tug, facilitating rapid interrupted suturing in deep cavities without the need for cutting.

The CT-2 (Circle Taper) needle is a 26mm, 1/2 circle silver needle designed for smooth penetration through soft tissues such as the peritoneum, fascia, and vaginal cuff, where a cutting edge is not desired.

Technical & Professional Advantages

• Antibacterial Defense: The Triclosan coating creates a zone of inhibition that prevents the formation of biofilms on the suture, a critical factor in reducing the risk of post-operative infections.

• Control Release™ (CR) Efficiency: The "Pop-Off" needle design is engineered for speed, allowing for the placement of multiple interrupted sutures in rapid succession—ideal for fascia closure and orthopedic repairs.

• Superior Tensile Strength: As a Size 0 suture, it provides robust support for heavy tissues, maintaining approximately 75% of its strength at 14 days and 50% at 21 days post-implantation.

• Multipack Configuration: Each sterile packet contains 8 individual 18" strands, providing a cost-effective and efficient solution for procedures requiring high-volume suturing.

• Taper Point Precision: The CT-2 needle is designed to push tissue fibers apart rather than cutting them, making it the preferred choice for delicate internal organs and vascular-rich soft tissues.
