Thousands of people undergo heart surgery daily in the U.S. and around the world. Whether a patient requires surgery to repair the valves that control blood flow through the heart's chambers or an implant device to regulate heart rhythms, the chances of a patient experiencing a fast recovery are phenomenal.
Surgical technology is changing at a rapid pace. New surgical instruments are introduced to the medical industry more frequently than ever. For example, companies like GerMedUSA Inc. manufacture a large selection of innovative surgical instruments like the Sequential Suture Holder (TM). They introduce a variety of quality surgical instruments frequently.
This patent pending surgical tool, designed by Dr R. Vijay, M.D., makes surgical procedures much easier for surgeons. The sequential suture holder is designed to easily attach to a surgical drape. It is described as a steel, plastic and aluminum suture holder. It currently has two prototypes.
When a surgeon performed this sort of procedure, the sutures would get entangled and require extra effort and time to perform the surgery. To say the least, this was very counterproductive. So, Dr. Vijay spent several years in search for an efficient surgical tool to solve this common problem among doctors.
How it Works During surgery, these sutures are detached individually, in sequential order and applied to the sewing ring of the artificial heart valve. Then the needles are cut and all the sequential sutures in the holder are lifted up to maneuver the heart valve into the right position. Then without any strings hanging below, the sutures are tied and cut. This makes the procedure a lot easier for surgeons.
During a surgical procedure, the sutures are removed one at a time in sequential order. Then they are applied to the sewing ring of the artificial heart valve. The needles are cut and all the sequential sutures placed on the holder are lifted up to move the heart valve into the proper position. The sutures are then tied and cut. The Sequential Suture Holder is described as a plastic, steel and aluminum instrument.
It is interesting to note that during the late 60s and early 70s; there were no surgical tools available on the market to hold a few sutures for heart valve replacement. This includes other type's surgeries where many sutures were used.
