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.

  • 2020 AAHA Anesthesia and Monitoring Guidelines for Dogs and Cats*
    VETERINARY PRACTICE GUIDELINES 2020 AAHA Anesthesia and Monitoring Guidelines for Dogs and Cats* Tamara Grubb, DVM, PhD, DACVAAy, Jennifer Sager, BS, CVT, VTS (Anesthesia/Analgesia, ECC)y, James S. Gaynor, DVM, MS, DACVAA, DAIPM, CVA, CVPP, Elizabeth Montgomery, DVM, MPH, Judith A. Parker, DVM, DABVP, Heidi Shafford, DVM, PhD, DACVAA, Caitlin Tearney, DVM, DACVAA ABSTRACT Risk for complications and even death is inherent to anesthesia. However, the use of guidelines, checklists, and training can decrease the risk of anesthesia-related adverse events. These tools should be used not only during the time the patient is unconscious but also before and after this phase. The framework for safe anesthesia delivered as a continuum of care from home to hospital and back to home is presented in these guidelines. The critical importance of client commu- nication and staff training have been highlighted. The role of perioperative analgesia, anxiolytics, and proper handling of fractious/fearful/aggressive patients as components of anesthetic safety are stressed. Anesthesia equipment selection and care is detailed. The objective of these guidelines is to make the anesthesia period as safe as possible for dogs and cats while providing a practical framework for delivering anesthesia care. To meet this goal, tables, algorithms, figures, and “tip” boxes with critical information are included in the manuscript and an in-depth online resource center is available at aaha.org/anesthesia. (J Am Anim Hosp Assoc 2020; 56:---–---. DOI 10.5326/JAAHA-MS-7055) AFFILIATIONS Other recommendations are based on practical clinical experience and From Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine, Pullman, a consensus of expert opinion.

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.

  • 49 How to Grasp the Needle with Needle
    Basic Instrument Use Video Transcript How to Grasp the Needle with Needle Holders Placing a stitch requires a sequence of carefully planned steps. Each step, if performed incorrectly, contributes to the loss of precious operative time. Skilled surgeons do not necessarily suture with rapid hand motions, but use deliberate, disciplined steps that eliminate nonproductive motions during suturing. Novice surgeons must practice handling the needle holder and placing sutures in order to learn how to perform this technique pr operly and efficiently. In this video, we will examine the first step of placing a stitch, how to grasp the needle within the jaws of the needle holder. To grasp the needle in the needle holder, release the ratchet and open the jaws. The needle is positioned between the jaws, at the tip of the instrument, and is almost always held perpendicular to the axis of the jaws. This standard position allows for good needle stability and helps prevent bending. When the needle is held in this manner, the needle can be driven through tissue by merely rotating the holder on its axis. This minimizes the amount of motion needed to drive the needle, using less space to complete the stitch. When the needle is placed obliquely within the jaws, the handle of the holders must move through a wider arc to follow the curve of the needle through the tissue. There are few surgical situations in which oblique placement of the needle is required. When grasping the needle with needle holders, you will also need to plan where along the curve of the needle it should be grasped.
