To evaluate the frictional force created by different knots used in adjustable suture strabismus surgery.
To allow the simulation of strabismus surgery suture tying methods a model using 6-0 polyglactin 910 suture was created. Three different knots were evaluated: (1) the sliding noose knot with a double wrap of suture, (2) the cinch knot with a single throw on both sides of the pole suture, (2) and a single-throw square knot. (Bow-tie knots were not included.) A digital force meter was used to measure the force (gram-force [gf]) required to overcome the static friction created by the knot. Each simulation was repeated with new suture material 5 times and the force required after subsequent repositioning was also recorded.
The force to overcome static friction of the sliding noose knot was 240 gf [95% CI, 187-284 gf]; of the cinch knot, 150 gf [95% CI, 123-167 gf]; and of the square knot, 110 gf [95% CI, 95-121 gf]. Subsequent movement of each knot along the same suture required progressively less force, with the sliding noose maintaining the most static friction.
The sliding noose knot generates the most frictional force and also maintains the most friction after subsequent repositioning. Important consideration should be given to multiple repositioning movements, because the force required for each subsequent repositioning decreases.
评估可调缝线斜视手术中不同打结方式产生的摩擦力。
为模拟斜视手术的缝线打结方法,创建了一个使用6-0聚乙醇酸910缝线的模型。评估了三种不同的结:(1)双股缝线的滑套结,(2)在极缝线两侧单次投掷的收紧结,(2)和单掷方结。(不包括领结结。)使用数字测力计测量克服结产生的静摩擦力所需的力(克力[gf])。每次模拟用新的缝线材料重复5次,并记录后续重新定位后所需的力。
克服滑套结静摩擦力所需的力为240 gf [95%置信区间,187-284 gf];收紧结为150 gf [95%置信区间,123-167 gf];方结为110 gf [95%置信区间,95-121 gf]。每个结沿同一缝线的后续移动所需的力逐渐减小,滑套结保持的静摩擦力最大。
滑套结产生的摩擦力最大,并且在后续重新定位后也保持最大的摩擦力。应重要考虑多次重新定位移动,因为每次后续重新定位所需的力会减小。
