![]() ![]() ![]() Included Components: A tissue pad manufactured from a hybrid of synthetic human skeletal muscle and fibrous fascia.Īvailable Options: If you require custom tissues, dimensions or modified mechanical properties please call and ask to speak to one of our technical sales representatives.ĭimensions: Pads are square and 15cm on a side. Relevant Skills: Incisions, suturing, stapling and application of adhesives.Įquipment Compatibility: Laser scalpels, electrocautery and RF ablation devices, harmonic blades, monopolar and bipolar devices, plasma knives, ultrasound equipment and all known imaging equipment. The resulting synthetic tissue responds to stimulus much like the real living tissue. While it is possible to lay knots down flat and square one-handed, because of the increased difficulty in doing so some surgeons will intentionally forgo a flat, square knot when tying one-handed and will compensate for adding additional throws.SynTissue brand synthetic human tissue components are designed on the basis of physical tests performed on actual living tissue, and each synthetic tissue is validated (tensile modulus, abrasion resistance, penetration force, coefficient of friction, thermal conductivity, dielectric constant, etc.) under the same physical conditions as the live tissue it is designed to simulate. This results in the throws stacking up on top of each other as a series of half hitches rather than lying down flat and square. Even when throws are alternated appropriately, it is harder to cross the hands and lay the throws down flat. It is more difficult to tie a square knot one-handed.

That said, it is helpful to be able to tie one handed with either hand, which gives the surgeons more options when tying in deep holes or at different angles. It is most often performed with the non-dominant hand, so that (for example) a right handed surgeon is holding the needle driver in her right hand while tying with her left. The one-handed tie is often faster than a two handed tie, and can also be performed while still holding an instrument (such as the needle driver). ![]()
