Virtual Suturing for Training in Vascular Surgery
Today’s health professionals are facing a crisis in training needs: on one hand, the working hours of junior doctors and experience at the operating table are being reduced; on the other, patients are growing ever more critical and litigious. VR simulators may be able to provide a solution, but whilst hardware costs have fallen in recent years, they are still expensive when compared to conventi...
متن کاملAugmented reality to training spatial skills
La Laguna University has been offering courses for the development of spatial skills since 2004. Each year since that time spatial ability of engineering students has been measured before and after the courses to check progress after each training session. We have developed a spatial skills training course based on augmented reality and graphic engineering contents, and designed the AR_Dehaes t...
متن کاملFuture trends in endoscopic suturing.
This paper deals with future aspects and developments in endoscopic sutures, needles, needle drivers, and sewing devices. Shape memory alloys such as superelastic nickel-titanium can be used for surgical needles and hingeless needle drivers. A sewing device consists of a T-Needle which can be shuttled between the jaws of specially designed instruments. The jaws possess small elements that grip ...
متن کاملOptimal Patterns for Suturing
A mathematical model for computing stresses in sutured human skin wounds is presented. The model uses the incremental law of elasticity and elastic constants valid for in vivo orthotropic skin. The model is applied to compute the principal stress and displacements resulting from suturing small elliptical and circular wounds in a large at sheet of skin, in order to determine the optimal suturing...
متن کاملCurrent Developments in Endoscopic Suturing
Endoscopic suturing is an advanced endoscopic technique utilizing a minimally-invasive approach for the correction of gastrointestinal wall defects. Currently, the OverstitchTM endoscopic suturing system (Apollo Endosurgery Inc., Austin, Texas) is the only endoscopic suturing system approved in the United States by the FDA. Though its applications remain experimental, there is a burgeoning body...
