Recent innovations in surgical materials have helped to enhance wound healing and protect surgical wounds from infection. Materials such as polyglyconate have been evaluated in equine tissues and found efficacious. Other materials, such as poliglecaprone 25, appear to have qualities useful to equine surgery but are untested in equine tissues. Care must be taken to fully evaluate a new surgical material because its usefulness in equine tissues may not match that in human or laboratory animal tissues. Furthermore, use of disposable materials in surgery, although considered ideal for maintenance of sterility, may come under more scrutiny in the future as environmental issues gain prominence. We tend to reserve disposable materials for prolonged procedures and for procedures that carry high risk of failure if infection develops.
外科材料的最新创新有助于促进伤口愈合，并保护手术伤口免受感染。聚乙醇酸等材料已在马组织中进行评估，并被发现有效。其他材料，如聚乙交酯丙交酯25，似乎具有对马手术有用的特性，但尚未在马组织中进行测试。必须谨慎全面评估一种新的外科材料，因为其在马组织中的效用可能与在人类或实验动物组织中的效用不同。此外，手术中一次性材料的使用，虽然被认为是维持无菌状态的理想选择，但随着环境问题日益突出，未来可能会受到更多审查。我们倾向于将一次性材料保留用于长时间手术以及如果发生感染则失败风险高的手术。
