|
Suture
|
any strand of material which is used to tie off blood vessels or approximate tissues
|
|
Tensile Strength
|
force required to break a length of material
|
|
Pliability
|
contributes to the ease with which the suture material is handled (depends upon torsional stiffness & diameter)
[Most pliable] silk> braided synthetics> synthetic monofilament> Chromic gut> Stainless Steel [Least Pliable) |
|
Memory
|
tendency of suture material to return to its original shape
(Most Memory) synthetic monofilament > Chromic gut> Stainless Steel> Braided Synthetic > Silk (Least Memory) |
|
Surface Friction
|
increased surface friction is benefical for knot security.... however, increases tissue drag
Some braided materials are coated so they produce less friction |
|
Knot security
|
knot holding capacity quantifies by % of its tensile strength
The weakest point of a suture line is often the knot |
|
tissue reactivity
|
natural fibers > synthetic
Natural fibers: catgut, collagen, silk, cotten |
