Sutures , and Instruments
Needle material, diameter, curvature, and point style all contribute to needle function and should be considered relative to the goal of suturing and tissue type when selecting a needle. Suture material and diameter determine strength, handling, adsorbability, knot security, and tissue reactivity. Together with the tissue type and goal of suturing, these characteristics should be considered whe...
متن کاملA new needle holder facilitating palm grip suturing.
PURPOSE The finger grip and the palm grip are the most common needle holder grips for hand suturing in surgery. The major advantages of the palm grip are an increased versatility and the possibility to apply controlled force. However, there is a risk for a potential loss of precision and uncontrolled movement of the needle when disengaging the ratchet mechanism of the palmed instrument. The pur...
متن کاملElectromyographic Comparison of Forearm Muscle Movements for Fine Skin Suturing Between an Enlarged Pen Needle Holder and a Webster Needle Holder
BACKGROUND For surgical suturing, a Webster needle holder uses wrist supinating with supinator and extrinsic muscles, whereas a pen needle holder uses finger twisting with intrinsic and extrinsic muscles. Because the latter is better suited to microsurgery, which requires fine suturing with less forearm muscle movement, we have recently adopted an enlarged pen needle holder scaled from a micro ...
متن کاملAutomating Multiple-Throw Multilateral Surgical Suturing with a Mechanical Needle Guide and Sequential Convex Optimization
Suturing is a ubiquitous sub-task in surgery. To explore supervised automation of multi-throw suturing in Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery, we present a novel mechanical needle guide design and an optimization framework to optimize needle size, needle trajectory and control parameters for two arms using sequential convex programming. We also develop a model-based needle tracking system...
متن کاملNo-touch, Single-move Technique to Reverse the Needle While Suturing
The aim of the study is to promote the "no-touch" surgical technique while suturing and to describe an easy way to reverse the needle while suturing. We have provided a step-by-step description of how to handle a needle while suturing using the no-touch technique. We have also provided figures for each step. The described technique is an easy, single-move, no-touch technique to reverse the needle.
متن کاملEvaluation of Efficacy of Four Laparoscopic Needle Drivers
INTRODUCTION To evaluate the impact of needle driver design on laparoscopic suturing skills by experts and novices. METHODS Three experienced laparoscopic surgeons and 3 novice junior residents were asked to perform a fixed set of suturing tasks in a laparoscopic pelvic-trainer. The laparoscopic needle drivers compared were (1) the Ethicon driver (E 705R), (2) Karl Storz (KS) pistol grip (261...
