KRUUSE Sacryl Rapid Suture is a synthetic, absorbable, multifilament, sterile surgical suture composed of a copolymer made from 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide (Polyglactin 910) and is coated with polyglycolide-co-lactide (30/70) and calcium stearate.
The characteristic rapid loss of strength is achieved by use of a polymer material with a lower molecular weight than regular KRUUSE Sacryl (Polyglactin 910) Suture. KRUUSE Sacryl Rapid Suture is available undyed.

Complete mass absorption in 42-56 days (approximately 55% of original tensile strength 7 days after implantation, 20% of original tensile strength 14 days after implantation, and 5% of original tensile strength 28 days after implantation).

Indications
KRUUSE Sacryl Rapid is preferred in soft tissue- and dental surgery where a rapid healing is expected and a rapid suture absorption is beneficial.

Contraindications
Where longer or permanent support is required
