Effect of a continuous epitendinous suture as adjunct to three-loop pulley and locking-loop patterns for flexor tendon repair in a canine model

VETERINARY SURGERY, 48(7), 1229–1236.

By: A. Putterman*, D. Duffy n, M. Kersh*, H. Rahman* & G. Moore*

MeSH headings : Animals; Biomechanical Phenomena; Cadaver; Dogs; Lacerations / surgery; Lacerations / veterinary; Orthopedic Procedures / methods; Orthopedic Procedures / veterinary; Plastic Surgery Procedures; Suture Techniques / veterinary; Sutures / veterinary; Tendon Injuries / surgery; Tendons / surgery; Tensile Strength
TL;DR: The addition of an epitendinous suture may increase the strength of tendon repairs and resistance to gap formation over core suture use alone and increased resistance to loads tolerated at the repair site. (via Semantic Scholar)

Effect of bite depth of an epitendinous suture on the biomechanical strength of repaired canine flexor tendons

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH, 80(11), 1043–1049.

By: D. Duffy n, Y. Chang n, L. Gaffney n, M. Fisher n & G. Moore*

MeSH headings : Animals; Biomechanical Phenomena; Cadaver; Dogs / surgery; Suture Techniques / veterinary; Tendon Injuries; Tendons / surgery; Tensile Strength
TL;DR: Increasing bite depth of an epitendinous suture toward the center of the tendon substance increased repair site strength and decreased the incidence of gap formation. (via Semantic Scholar)

2019 journal article

Effect of bite distance of an epitendinous suture from the repair site on the tensile strength of canine tendon constructs

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH, 80(11), 1034–1042.

By: D. Duffy n, C. Cocca*, M. Kersh*, W. Kim* & G. Moore*

MeSH headings : Animals; Biomechanical Phenomena; Cadaver; Dogs / surgery; Suture Techniques / veterinary; Tendons / surgery; Tenotomy / veterinary; Tensile Strength
TL;DR: Adding an IHMES to an LL construct led to increased ultimate tensile strength by 2.5 times and significantly reduced gap formation, providing superior biomechanical strength for tendon repairs in dogs. (via Semantic Scholar)

Ex vivo comparison of the effect of storage temperature on canine intestinal leakage pressures

VETERINARY SURGERY, 49(3), 496–501.

By: D. Duffy n, Y. Chang n, J. Balko n & G. Moore*

MeSH headings : Animals; Cadaver; Digestive System Surgical Procedures / veterinary; Dogs; Jejunum / surgery; Pressure; Sutures / standards; Sutures / veterinary; Temperature
TL;DR: Cadaveric canine intestinal specimens tested immediately after collection or after chilling for 24 hours should be recommended for ex vivo burst pressure assessment in dogs and additional studies to evaluate loss in testing viability of chilled intestinal specimens are warranted.

Influence of barbed suture on leak pressures after double-layer inverting closure of cystotomy sites in sheep

VETERINARY SURGERY, 47(7), 902–907.

By: D. Duffy*, H. Duddy*, S. Keating* & S. Gutierrez-Nibeyro*

MeSH headings : Animals; Cystotomy / veterinary; Laparoscopy / veterinary; Pressure; Sheep; Suture Techniques / veterinary; Sutures / veterinary; Urinary Bladder / surgery
TL;DR: The use of barbed suture did not affect mean leakage pressure of ovine urinary bladder incisions but decreased the time required to complete cystorrhaphies in this model. (via Semantic Scholar)
