  • SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS Veterinarians Are the Doctors Specializing in the Health of Animals
    SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS Veterinarians are the doctors specializing in the health of animals. They do the necessary surgical operations and care for the well-being of the animal creatures. The very basic thing they need in a certain operation and care are the veterinary instruments. This will serve as the main allay of every veterinarian in providing care. (1) What are surgical instruments? Surgical instruments are essentially gadgets planned in an uncommon manner to perform particular capacities amid a surgical operation to improve viability and accomplishment of the surgery. (1) 4 Basic types of surgical instruments Surgical instruments are specially designed tools that assist health care professionals car- ry out specific actions during an operation. Most instruments crafted from the early 19th century on are made from durable stainless steel. Some are designed for general use, and others for spe- cific procedures. There are many surgical instruments available for almost any specialization in medicine. There are precision instruments used in microsurgery, ophthalmology and otology. Most surgical instruments can be classified into these 4 basic types: Cutting and Dissecting – these instruments usually have sharp edges or tips to cut through skin, tissue and suture material. Surgeons need to cut and dissect tissue to explore irregular growths and to remove dangerous or damaged tissue. These instruments have single or double razor- sharp edges or blades. Nurses need to be very careful to avoid injuries, and regularly inspect these instruments before using, for re-sharpening or replacement. 11 Iris Scissors 2016 – 1 – LV01-KA202 – 022652 This project is funded by the European Union Clamping and Occluding – are used in many surgical procedures for compressing blood vessels or hollow organs, to prevent their contents from leaking.

  • The Introductory Guide/Basic Course #1 Chapter I About Sklar for 123 Years, Sklar Has Set the Standard for Surgical Instrumentation
    Surgical Instruments: The Introductory Guide/Basic Course #1 Chapter I About Sklar For 123 years, Sklar has set the standard for surgical instrumentation. In 1892, German born instrument maker John Sklar, founded the company to fill a need for American made surgical instruments and the rest is history. Sklar rose to prominence during World Wars I and II and was awarded the principal contract as the surgical instrument provider for the United States military. This contract established Sklar as the industry leader and placed it on the forefront of the surgical marketplace, where it went on to receive Certificates of Merit and Achievement from the U.S. Navy and six Army Navy “E” Production Awards. During the 1930s, Sklar’s research department helped to develop a stainless steel alloy especially suited to the manufacture of surgical instruments. The company’s investment in research was justified long-term; most surgical instruments are still made of long-lasting, rust resistant, stainless steel. Today, Sklar is headquartered in West Chester, Pennsylvania where it remains the authority on the manufacture of high quality surgical instruments to medical professionals in 75 countries worldwide. Throughout its history, Sklar has collaborated with leading surgeons and medical facilities to develop thousands of unique surgical instrument patterns. In recent years, Sklar has expanded its product line to include more than 19,000 precision crafted, stainless steel instruments: the largest offering of surgical instruments in the world. Specialty practices include: OB/GYN, Orthopedic, ENT, Cardiovascular, Endoscopic, Dermatology, Podiatry, Veterinary, Dental, etc. The prevention and reduction of healthcare associated infection (HAI) is a top priority in medical facilities today.

Each of the thousands of instruments used is designed for a specific function. They can be classified depending on use as follows: Cutting instruments Instruments for tissue grasping and manipulation Instruments for tissue exposure Suturing instruments Hybrid instruments Endoscopic instruments Cutting instruments Scalpels: consist of a handle and a blade; the handle is made of metal (reusable) or plastic (disposable); blades are disposable, of various shapes and sizes. The top of the scalpel handle has a special part, with a groove that allows its sliding into the blade slot and securing of the blade in position.

    GLOBAL EXCLUSIVE > SURGERY > PEER REVIEWED The Basic Surgery Kit Jan Janovec, MVDr, MRCVS VRCC Veterinary Referrals Laurent Findji, DMV, MS, MRCVS, DECVS Fitzpatrick Referrals Considering the virtually limitless range of surgical instruments, it can be difficult to assemble a cost-effective basic surgery kit. Some instruments may misleadingly appear multipurpose, but their misuse may damage them, leading to unnecessary replacement costs or, worse, intraoperative accidents putting the patient’s safety at risk. Many instru- ments are available in different qualities and materials (eg, tungsten carbide instruments— more expensive but much more resistant to wear and corrosion than stainless steel) and Minimal Basic Surgery Kit varied sizes to match the purpose of their use as well as the size of the surgeon’s hand. n 1 instrument case Cutting Instruments n 1 scalpel handle Scalpel n 1 pair Mayo scissors The scalpel is an indispensible item in a surgical kit designed to make sharp incisions. Scalpel incision is the least traumatic way of dissection, but provides no hemostasis. n 1 pair Metzenbaum scissors Scalpel handles come in various sizes, each accommodating a range of disposable n 1 pair suture scissors blades (Figure 1). Entirely disposable scalpels are also available. n 1 pair Mayo-Hegar needle holder Scissors n 1 pair Brown-Adson tissue forceps Scissors are used for cutting, albeit with some crushing effect, and for blunt dissection. n 1 pair DeBakey tissue forceps Fine scissors, such as Metzenbaum scissors (Figure 2), should be reserved for cutting n 4 pairs mosquito hemostatic forceps and dissecting delicate tissues. Sturdier scissors, such as Mayo or suture scissors, are designed for use on denser tissues (eg, fascia) or inanimate objects (eg, sutures, drapes).

Abstract While coil occlusion is well accepted for the small patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), occlusive devices are preferred for the larger (> 3 mm) ducts by most institutions. Because of costs concerns, occlusive devices are not always realistic in many countries. The technique of simultaneous delivery of multiple coils with bioptome assistance works well for relatively larger ducts. This technique requires careful case selection through echocardiography. The duct anatomy plays a crucial part in determining the suitability for coil occlusion. Coil occlusion has a specific advantage for relatively larger ducts in selected small children and in preterm infants because it is possible to accomplish delivery of multiple coils through relatively small introducer sheaths. In addition, aortic narrowing is less likely because coils compact in the ampulla.

  • Keyword Index to Assist Manufacturers in Verifying the Class of Medical Devices
    September 12, 2006 NOTICE Our file number: 06-120629-368 Re: Keyword Index to Assist Manufacturers in Verifying the Class of Medical Devices Health Canada is pleased to announce the release of the revised Keyword Index to Assist Manufacturers in Verifying the Class of Medical Devices. This guidance document supersedes the January 14, 2000 version of the same document. The Keyword Index to Assist Manufacturers in Verifying the Class of Medical Devices is intended to assist manufacturers in confirming the classification of medical device products after application of the Classification Rules for Medical Devices set out in Schedule 1 of the Medical Devices Regulations. This guidance document has been revised to reflect changes to the risk- based classification of particular medical device groups. Specifically, the following major changes have been made to the document: • the reclassification of specific medical device groups; • the removal of redundant information; • the addition of medical device groups; and • the omission of product groups that do not fit the meaning of a medical device as defined in the Food and Drugs Act. To search for a medical device group within the Keyword Index to Assist Manufacturers in Verifying the Class of Medical Devices PDF file, go to Edit/Find and enter a keyword, preferred name code or description in the “Find” field. For instance, to verify the risk-based classification of dental burs, enter “bur” or “drill” in the “Find” field.
