Surgical applications

Cellulose oxidized by means of dinitrogen tetroxide can have surgical applications as a material for dressing wounds, since it is assimilated by the human body (Kenyon et al. [58]). [Pg.351]

Surgical Applications of Tissue Sealants and Adhesives 6th, 7 and 8th Annual Conferences (2001-2004), sponsored by the Cambridge Healthtech Institute, 1037 Chestnut Street, Newton Upper Falls, MA. [Pg.71]

A complete discussion on adhesives and sealants for medical applications and sutureless surgery is not possible in this report, but the author recommends a review of the proceedings from the Surgical Applications of Tissue Sealants and Adhesives presented in New Orleans on October 6-7,2001 (see References Section). In addition, the Tissue Sealant and Adhesive 6th, 7 and 8th Annual Conferences sponsored by the Cambridge Healthtech Institute are excellent sources of information. [Pg.73]

Cryomedicine The use of cryogens in various medical and surgical applications. [Pg.170]

Use In orthopedic, ophthalmic, wound-care, drug-delivery, and surgical applications. [Pg.659]

Extra cellular polymeric substances (EPS) produced by microorganisms are a complex mixture of biopolymers primarily consisting of polysaccharides, as well as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and humic substances. EPS make up the intercellular space of microbial aggregates and form the structure and architecture of the biofilm matrix. The key functions of EPS are comprised of the mediation of the initial attachment of cells to different substrate, and protection against environmental stress and dehydration. The latter has a profound impact on an array of biomedical, biotechnical, and industrial fields including pharmaceutical and surgical applications, food engineering, bioremediation. [Pg.308]

HA has been used in implantable medical devices for the reduction of post-surgical adhesions. One such device, Seprafilm , has been on the market for ten years and is stiU the market leader for adhesion control in general surgical applications. Solutions of HA have been shown to act as tissue protectants and have been shown to affect adhesion formation in animal models (23-26). [Pg.334]

Cyanoacrylates have become very useful as tissue adhesives in surgical applications, because they polymerize rapidly in contact with moisture and create an extremely tenacious film. Methyl cyanoacrylate, used initially, has now fallen out of favor because of its toxic properties. The butyl and heptyl analogs are, however, quite satisfactory and do not produce objectionable tissue response. They also degrade at a much slower rate than the methyl compound in a biological environment. [Pg.148]

A number of wound dressing types are available for a variety of medical and surgical applications. The functions of these materials include providing protection against... [Pg.140]

Other textile materials used for wound dressing applications include gauze, lint, and wadding. Gauze is an open weave, absorbent fabric that, when coated with paraffin wax, is used for the treatment of bums and scalds. In surgical applications gauze serves as an absorbent material when used in pad form (swabs) yams containing... [Pg.141]
