Surgical instruments, sutures and suturing techniques
British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2007Anthropological studies suggest that prehistoric man used various techniques to close skin wounds (Ellis, 2001). The jaws of termites or beetles were used to bite across wounds and hold skin edges together in India and South America, and in East Africa acacia thorns were stuck along the two wound edges and then plaited together (Ellis, 2001).

Learning Medical Suturing Primitives for Autonomous Suturing
2021 IEEE 17th International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), 2021This paper focuses on a learning from demonstration approach for autonomous medical suturing. A conditional neural network is used to learn and generate suturing primitives trajectories which were conditioned on desired context points. Using our designed GUI a user could plan and select suturing insertion points.

The knowledge regarding the mendosal suture is still on debate in the literature. Though reports of the closure of this childhood suture are variable, a few reports show the presence of the suture in the adults. This study was conducted to determine the occurrence and a better topographic location of the mendosal suture.We used 129 dry skulls for this ...

Abstract. The suture tensor is a simple stainless steel device that pulls the ends of a running subcuticular suture in opposite directions, maintaining the desired closure. The benefits of the use of this device may include minimization of train‐track and excisional scarification (via the enhanced maintenance of “tenting”), time savings, and ...

Polyglactin Sutures Versus Nylon Sutures for Scleral Flap Suturing in Trabeculectomy
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1999* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: To note the effect on filtration function of using polyglactin sutures for scleral flap suturing in trabeculectomy. * PATIENTS AND METHODS: Polyglactin sutures were compared with nylon sutures to secure the scleral flap of trabeculectomy in 30 consecutive eyes. Parameters studied were intraocular pressure, central
