AASCRYL RAPID – Polyglactin Rapid Absorbable Sutures
AASCRYL RAPID is a fast-absorbing synthetic braided suture made from specially processed Polyglactin, designed for procedures requiring short-term wound support. This suture is particularly suitable for superficial tissue closure where rapid healing occurs and long-term tensile strength is not required.
The unique formulation of AASCRYL RAPID allows for rapid loss of tensile strength while maintaining excellent knot security during the initial healing phase. The braided construction enhances handling characteristics, making the suture easy to tie and control during surgical procedures. Its smooth coating ensures minimal tissue drag and reduced trauma, improving patient comfort and healing outcomes.
This suture is widely used in dermatological procedures, pediatric surgeries, oral surgeries, and other superficial tissue closures where rapid absorption is beneficial. The predictable absorption profile ensures the suture dissolves naturally within a short time, eliminating the need for removal.
