Assessment of mechanical properties and dimensions of suture threads utilized in orthopedic surgeries

Abstract: RESUMOFios de sutura de náilon (0, 3-0 e 4-0), poliéster trançado (0, 3-0 e 4-0) e polipropileno (0, 3-0 e 4-0) de 7 marcas comercializadas no Brasil, foram submetidos a análise de diâmetro, comprimento, resistência do encastoamento, resistência à tração do fio sem nó e resistência à tração do fio com nó, segundo metodologia padronizada pela Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas (ABNT). Os resultados obtidos indicam que a maioria dos fios testados encontra-se dentro dos valores preconizados pela ABNT.Descri… Show more

“…However, the values evidenced in the present study are still higher than others reported in the literature that tested silk sutures without incorporation 26 and polyglactin 910 27 . This fact reaffirms that external aspects such as storage conditions, manufacturing time and types of materials can influence this parameter 26,28 . Another point is that the incorporation of the antimicrobial agents did not influence the displacement of the sutures, which clinically may not have a negative effect on the elasticity and plasticity of the sutures.…”

“…12,14,[17][18][19] A inflamação observada nas amostras das regiões DE podem ser justificadas pelo nylon ser um polímero de cadeia longa, que se mantém como corpo estrando dentro dos tecidos, porém o material induz uma resposta inflamatória mínima, o que pode prolongar as fases inflamatórias do processo de reparo tecidual. 20 Os adesivos de cianoacrilatos, como SuperBonder® apresentam inúmeras vantagens, a saber: resultados cosméticos aceitáveis, custo-benefício, não necessitam de -anestesia local para realização do procedimento de coaptação, como não há necessidade de remoção de sutura (dentro de 5 a 10 dias são eliminados). Servem como barreira contra penetração de microrganismos, além do tempo operatório ser menor, em relação à sutura convencional.…”

“…;Baji et al [7]; Brennan et al [21]; and Kim et al [22] have described the monotonic mechanical properties of electrospun fibers; however, the cyclic properties of the fibers need to be studied further. Among the most common techniques for mechanical testing of microfilament samples is the use of grips that apply pressure on both ends of a specimen [23], cleat jigs or similar devices [24], [25], and using support material with an adhesive to fix the filament and attach the support to a measurement apparatus [26].…”
