To demonstrate, in vivo, acute strength reinforcement benefits of polymer film patches.
STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS: Full thickness incisions created in a dorsal skin flap of Sprague-Dawley rats were closed by laser-tissue welding: albumin solder was topically applied to the incision on the dermal surface, and a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) polymer film placed on the solder as a patch (controls had no film). Breaking strength was tested acutely (15-20 minutes after sacrifice).
The patched incisions were statistically stronger than the controls (ANOVA, P < 0.05).
Polymer film patches may be a viable method to increase acute breaking strengths of welds using topically applied solder.
在活体中证明聚合物薄膜贴片的急性强度增强益处。
研究设计/材料与方法:在Sprague-Dawley大鼠背部皮瓣上制作全层切口,通过激光组织焊接进行闭合:将白蛋白焊剂局部涂抹于真皮表面的切口上,并将聚乳酸-乙醇酸共聚物(PLGA)聚合物薄膜作为贴片置于焊剂上(对照组无薄膜)。在处死动物后15 - 20分钟急性测试抗张强度。
贴片切口在统计学上比对照组更强(方差分析,P < 0.05)。
聚合物薄膜贴片可能是一种可行的方法,可提高使用局部涂抹焊剂的焊接的急性抗张强度。
