A method is described for repairing silicone catheters that have been severed due to excess force by the animal or tension within the restraint system. The technique is particularly useful when the break in the catheter occurs under the skin. The entire repair process takes less than 20 minutes and can be performed under light anesthesia. This technique would be of benefit primarily in intravenous drug self-administration studies, but procedures employing chronic catheterization (e.g., intragastric, intraperitoneal) could also use this method.
本文描述了一种修复因动物用力过度或约束系统内的张力而切断的硅胶导管的方法。当导管在皮肤下发生断裂时，该技术特别有用。整个修复过程耗时不到20分钟，可在轻度麻醉下进行。该技术主要在静脉药物自我给药研究中有益，但采用慢性导管插入术（如胃内、腹腔内）的程序也可使用此方法。
