Microsurgical skills training: A new concept for simulation of vessel‐wall suturing

摘要: Initiation of training in basic microsurgical suturing technique usually involves placing sutures on incisions made latex sheets, and then progressing to a live anastomosis rat model. A straight incision resembles skin does not mechanically simulate vessel wall suturing, various modifications innovative prosthetic models continue be developed bring the simulation closer anastomosis. We two which closely require application similar skills by trainee. In first model (the "I" model), 1-cm is converted an I-shaped increases instability edge sutured, depending length horizontal incision, putting greater demand dexterity suture placement vessel. The (1 cm) constrain spacing can used for beginner. second "double triangle" model) creates narrow unstable sutures, puts bimanual coordination instrument control accuracy as well between sutures. Both these are cost-effective simple construct.
