An in vitro study on the efficacy of nanoparticles and nanocomposites as coating materials on surgical sutures [PDF]
Upgrading the surgical sutures, as the main wound closure device, is essential. The evolution of bacterial resistance and the plummeting of antibiotics have directed research toward augmented sutures. Nanotechnology has provided answers to these concerns.

COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN THE EFFICACY OF CONVENTIONAL PLAIN VICRYL AND ANTIBACTERIAL VICRYL CONTAINING TRICLOSAN [PDF]
Introduction: Third molar surgeries are the most commonly practiced surgeries in the dental office. The incidence of surgical site infection is still higher in spite of antibiotic prophylaxis owing to the need for the use of alternative measures. Antibacterial sutures are recently being used following third molar surgeries to reduce the incidence of ...

Vicryl (polyglactin 910) in cataract surgery. A controlled trial. [PDF]
In a controlled, randomized trial in 45 cataract operations a new synthetic absorbable suture (8-0 monofilament Vicryl, made by Ethicon), was compared with monofilament nylon or virgin silk normally used. There was a higher incidence of early complications-hyphaema, shallow anterior chamber, and choroidal detachment (15-4 per cent v.

Intracorporeal vicryl ligatures reduces cost in some countries
Background: Financial constraints and pressing priorities are major problems that delay implementation of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in some countries. This raised the need for improvisation and innovation [1],[2] . Endoclips are not available in

Use of a Vicryl lasso during insertion of locking screws [PDF]
During nailing of long bones, retrieval of locking screws that get ‘lost’ in the soft tissues can be difficult especially in obese patients. We describe a simple technique to avoid this problem. A loop of No. I Vicryl is ‘lassoed’ around the neck of the screw and a clip is attached to its end. The screw is inserted as usual.
