New bactericidal surgical suture coating.
This paper demonstrates the effectiveness of a new antimicrobial suture coating. An amphiphilic polymer, poly[(aminoethyl methacrylate)-co-(butyl methacrylate)] (PAMBM), inspired by antimicrobial peptides, was bactericidal against S. aureus in time-kill experiments. PAMBM was then evaluated in a variety of polymer blends using the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) method and showed excellent...
متن کاملNew adjustable suture technique for trabeculectomy.
PURPOSE To describe an adjustable suture (AS) experimental model that allows for tightening, loosening and retightening of the suture tension in trabeculectomy. METHODS Standard trabeculectomy was performed in fifteen pig eyeballs. All pig eyes were tested twice: one test with conventional suture in both flap's corners (conventional suture group) and another test with a conventional suture at...
متن کاملA new suture needle for corneal surgery.
IT occurred to me some time ago that, if one used a straight needle so that in placing sutures there was no bending force applied by the needle-holder, this needle could be greatly reduced in diameter. This smaller cross-section would in turn allow it to penetrate tough tissue such as the cornea much more easily. Further, I felt that with a straight needle one could place sutures much more accu...
متن کاملNew suture material for squint surgery.
All operations were performed under general anaesthesia using a limbal approach to the insertions of the muscles, similar to that recently described by Fells (I97 i). The 6/o Ethiflex suture was then used in the standard manner employing a "whip" stitch on the edge of each muscle. At the moment the suture is presented with a io-mm. taper-point needle. This is not ideal, but no problems, apart f...
متن کاملIntroduction of a New Suture Method in Repair of Peripheral Nerves Injured with a Sharp Mechanism
Background: The standard method for repair of an injured peripheal nerve is epineural repair with separate sutures. Herein we describe a method in which the nerve is sutured with continous sutures. In fact this method has not been utilized for nerve repair previously and our purpose was to compare it to the standard method. If it proved to be successful it would replace the standard method in...
