Russia has created a surgical suture that reduces the risk of complications by 2.4 times
The Belgorod State National Research University (NIA BelSU) has developed a new method of applying surgical sutures, which, as stated in the university in early July 2023, reduces the risks of postoperative complications by 2.4 times.
Prior to the development of this method in surgery, a mainly horizontal U-shaped single-row Kuznetsova-Pensky suture was used. However, it has a number of drawbacks: the seam material accumulates in the wound, the threads twist between themselves, knots must be tied from different edges of the wound. All this increases the time of the operation, which is fraught with an increase in blood loss.
When using the method developed by Belgorod scientists, one thread is used for the seam, and as a result, there is no border between sewing and tying surgical knots. They are located on one side of the organ, which also allows you to reduce blood loss, avoid the damage caused by it and speed up the healing of the suture, emphasizes one of the developers of the new method, professor of the Department of Hospital Surgery at the National Research University of BelSU, board member of the Russian Society of Urologists Sergei Shkodkin.
The new suture can be used for damage to the kidneys, liver, pancreas and thyroid glands. The effectiveness of the method was confirmed by the results of the performed operations in patients with kidney tumors. A week after the operation, the researchers note, in the tissues adjacent to the suture line, there was no swelling and signs of necrosis - tissue death.
Experimental assessment of the effectiveness of the seam was carried out on the basis of the Research Institute "Pharmacology of Living Systems of the National Research University" BelSU "and the Center for Collective Use" Technologies and Materials of the National Research University "BelSU," clinical - on the basis of the Belgorod Regional Clinical Hospital of St. Joasaph.[1]
