Srb S Atlas Of Tissue Approximation With Suturing Knotting

Approximation in surgery is the bringing of tissue edges into the desired position for suturing. This atlas is a step by step guide to tissue approximation, suturing and knotting, for trainees in surgery. Divided into seven sections, the books begins with discussion on the history of suturing, instruments, and suture materials and needles. The following chapters cover practical aspects of different types of suture, their advantages and disadvantages; and surgical knot tying. The book concludes with chapters on skin and soft tissue suturing, and laparoscopic suturing; essential knowledge with the preference for minimally invasive techniques in modern surgical procedures. The atlas is highly illustrated with surgical photographs and diagrams, and is supported by videos of suturing techniques.

The emphasis throughout the text is to provide clear and practical step-by-step guidance to the many knot and suturing techniques in the surgeon's armamentarium Each stage of the various knots and procedures described is illustrated by clear, three colour line drawings and accompanied by definitive text.

Video Atlas of Ophthalmic Suturing: Fundamentals and Techniques by Steven Brooks, MD, is the first multimedia atlas dedicated to effective suturing and knot tying skills in ophthalmic surgery. The text and videos not only cover essential suturing techniques, but merge these concepts with critical principles of wound healing, tissue biomechanics, ergonomics, and the physical properties of common ophthalmic sutures and surgical needles. This atlas fills a significant knowledge gap in educational ophthalmic surgery literature, and greatly enhances the fundamental knowledge and skills provided in ophthalmic surgical training programs. The reader is guided step by step starting with history, safety, basic principles, and the role of the suture in wound healing. Subsequent chapters cover all aspects of sutures - from design and proper selection of tools to basic skills and advanced techniques. The instructional videos, accompanying text, and high-quality illustrations provide the resources necessary to develop muscle memory, tactile experience, and conceptual understanding required for eventual mastery. The easy-to-follow didactics enable practicing and replicating various skills in a training lab environment. Key Features Fifty ophthalmic surgery videos utilize non-biological model materials and larger sutures than those used in ophthalmic practice, clearly demonstrating the technical and spatial aspects of suturing maneuvers The videos are provided as QR codes directly in the book and are also on the accompanying Media Center site A chapter on safe practices, a critical issue rarely discussed in surgical texts, helps prevent the risk of sharps injuries in the operating room Discussion of the composition and properties of common surgical threads used in ophthalmic surgery enables proper selection of sutures, needles, holders, forceps, and stitching patterns for specific cases Clinical pearls on topics such as tissue stabilization, proper hand position, avoiding common errors, and complications A self-assessment quiz ensures a solid understanding of the material presented Unique in the field, this outstanding reference provides the beginning ophthalmic surgeon practical knowledge of anatomy, pathophysiology, wound healing, biomechanics, and hands-on suturing techniques. Teaching ophthalmologists will discover robust material from which to design didactic and wet lab resident courses.

Professional medical and paramedical curricula include extensive training in aseptic and sterile techniques as well as educating students in wound management. Animal science curricula educates the potential livestock producer in management procedures but leaves the problems involving the health of the animals to the veterinary profession. However, there are occasions when livestock producers, backcountry travelers, and ocean going mates and captains are confronted with problems needing immediate attention. The procedures included in this handbook can be helpful in preparing those individuals for such crises. On demand Printing
