A preliminary study of the effect of closed incision management with negative pressure wound therapy over high-risk incisions [PDF]

, 2015
Background Certain postoperative wounds are recognised to be associated with more complications than others and may be termed high-risk. Wound healing can be particularly challenging following high-energy trauma where wound necrosis and infection ...

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Reassessing the cardiac box: A comprehensive evaluation of the relationship between thoracic gunshot wounds and cardiac injury [PDF]

, 2017
Background: High energy missiles can cause cardiac injury regardless of entrance site. This study assesses the adequacy of the anatomic borders of the current “cardiac box” to predict cardiac injury.

Pneumopericardium after thoracic stab wound [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1999
A 26-year-old man with a right-sided thoracic knife stab wound was referred to our institution because of suspected concomitant heart injury. The right-sided partial pneumothorax with very small haematothorax had been treated at the primary hospital by a chest tube insertion.

Fully 3D‐Printed Wave‐Wound Electromagnetic Motors

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents the first fully 3D‐printed wave‐wound electromagnetic motors, which are created using conductive nanoparticle inks, carbon‐filled nylon polymers, and surface mount components. These motors can achieve a stall torque of 7.62N·mmA−1$7.62 \nobreakspace N{\cdot }mm A^{-1}$ and efficiency of 28.2 %, which approaches the performance of ...

Performance of pre-hospital evaluations in ruling out invasive chest stab wounds

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2020
Background Some guidelines advocate for managing patients with penetrating thoracic wounds in trauma centres with cardiothoracic surgery. This systematic approach is questionable. Only 15% of these patients require surgery.
