PROCRYL

Description

:

PROCRYL Rapid Sutures are coated, braided, synthetic absorbable sterile surgical suture for short term wound support.
PROCRYL Rapid is recommended only when faster absorption is desired. The higher homopolymer of glycolide, is reduced to simpler polymer for fast absorption. It reduces pain and discomfort. Tensile strength is higher than gut suture.
