Ethicon J214H 4-0 COATED VICRYL UNDYED 1X27" RB-1 Box of 36

Ethicon J214H 4-0 Coated VICRYL Undyed Suture | RB-1 17mm Taper Point | Box of 36

The Ethicon J214H is a high-precision Coated VICRYL® (Polyglactin 910) synthetic absorbable suture, specifically engineered for delicate soft tissue approximation and ligation. This Size 4-0 undyed braided suture is a clinical staple for internal repairs where a low-visibility, non-pigmented strand is required to minimize tissue reaction. Paired with the specialized RB-1 (Renal Bypass) needle, the J214H offers exceptional maneuverability in confined spaces, making it the preferred choice for urological, pediatric, and delicate general surgical applications.

The RB-1 needle is a 17mm, 1/2 circle taper point needle. Its fine-diameter, precision-honed tip is designed to push tissue fibers aside rather than cutting them, ensuring leak-proof closures in vascular-rich organs, the urinary tract, and gastrointestinal mucosa.

Technical & Professional Advantages

• RB-1 Needle Precision: The 17mm "Renal Bypass" needle is engineered for high-accuracy placement in delicate tissues, offering the perfect arc for micro-vessel stabilization and urological reconstructions.

• Superior Tensile Strength: As a Size 4-0 suture, it provides reliable mechanical support during the critical early healing window, retaining approximately 75% of its strength at 14 days and 50% at 21 days post-implantation.

• Undyed Braided Construction: The natural color is ideal for deep-tissue closures where a dyed suture might "show through" thin mucosal layers, while the proprietary coating ensures a smooth "zip" through tissue with minimal drag.

• Exceptional Knot Security: The braided design provides the tactile feedback and "lock-down" knot security that surgeons rely on for critical internal ties and vascular ligations.

• Predictable Absorption: Undergoes complete absorption via hydrolysis within 56 to 70 days, allowing the suture to vanish once the tissue has successfully regained its natural structural integrity.
