Nonslip Breast Retractors with Cautery Tip Cleaners
Fig. 1. Epstein breast retractor (ASSI, with permission from Accurate Surgical & Scientific Instruments Co. [1]). Fig. 2. Composition of cautery tip cleaners (Xodus). retraction of slippery muscle tissue by stainless steel retractors can be a hindrance during surgery. To overcome this situation, breast retractors with toothed ends are made and sold (Fig. 1) [1, 2]. However, they are not produce...
متن کاملImproved quarter-point crack tip element
We present a modification to the quarter-point crack tip element and employ this element in two-dimensional boundary integral fracture analysis. The standard singular element is adjusted so that the near-tip crack opening displacement satisfies a known constraint: the coefficient of the term which is linear in the distance to the tip must vanish. Stress intensity factors calculated with the dis...
متن کاملEffectiveness of vasectomy using cautery
BACKGROUND Little evidence supports the use of any one vas occlusion method. Data from a number of studies now suggest that there are differences in effectiveness among different occlusion methods. The main objectives of this study were to estimate the effectiveness of vasectomy by cautery and to describe the trends in sperm counts after cautery vasectomy. Other objectives were to estimate time...
متن کاملAn Improved WAGNER-WHITIN Algorithm
We present an improved implementation of the Wagner-Whitin algorithm for economic lot-sizing problems based on the planning-horizon theorem and the Economic- Part-Period concept. The proposed method of this paper reduces the burden of the computations significantly in two different cases. We first assume there is no backlogging and inventory holding and set-up costs are fixed. The second model ...
متن کاملImproved Flutter Ablation Outcomes Using a 10mm-tip Ablation Catheter
INTRODUCTION Radiofrequency(RF) ablation has become the first line of therapy for atrial flutter(AFL). Advances in catheter and mapping technologies have led to better understanding and different approaches for treating this arrhythmia. We describe the results of different approaches to ablate this arrhythmia. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cohort of 198 patients with isthmus dependent AFL. The tech...
