Problems solved by technology

The latter refers to the force required for medical sutures to slide against each other, and its size affects the difficulty of knotting, especially for surgical knots, three frictional contact surfaces are generated at the first node. The mutual friction between the sutures is large, and it is difficult for the medical sutures to slide each other when knotting, which is inconvenient for knotting and affects its operating feel.
[0003] Through the review of a large number of documents and materials, it is found that although there are corresponding instruments and test methods for the friction properties of fabric yarns and industrial ropes at home and abroad, the test devices and methods involved are not well applicable to the friction of medical sutures. Performance Testing
The results of the friction performance of fabric yarns are as follows, for example (1) the friction coefficient is usually used to measure the friction performance of fabric yarns, and most instruments use a skein simulation device to test the friction coefficient between yarns, or a capstan simulation device Test the friction performance between the yarn and the metal disc. The former mainly evaluates the properties of the yarn itself for fabrics, and the latter mainly evaluates the friction between the yarn and the machine during the manufacturing process, but only in one of the ways Test, and when evaluated by the friction coefficient, often can get the result that the friction coefficient difference of two kinds of yarns with large friction performance difference is not big, it is difficult to directly reflect the yarn friction performance difference from the data; (2) on this basis On the Internet, some researchers provide an instrument that can be tested according to the skein method, winch method or a combination of the two (such as Chinese Patent Publication No. CN201548481U), but this method emphasizes the friction between the test yarn and the textile machine Performance, which focuses on workshop production, has a certain gap with the actual use of medical sutures penetrating human tissue and knotting, and is not suitable for medical sutures; (3) Some researchers also start from the perspective of friction resistance , evaluate its friction performance by testing the friction resistance times of the yarn (such as Chinese Patent Publication No. CN102435521U, Publication No. CN203117064U), that is, the yarn rubs repeatedly with the abrasive piece, and calculates the friction times until the yarn breaks or becomes white. This method is suitable for evaluating the friction properties of materials such as ropes and cables, but it is far from the actual use of medical sutures, and the test results cannot provide effective reference for medical sutures.
[0004] At present, the characterization of the friction performance of medical suture thread when it penetrates into the tissue mainly comes from the postoperative feedback of the surgeon, and the scoring evaluation method is mostly used for subjective evaluation of the project, lacking more accurate objective data to support this, and this method involves the human body Or animal models, the experiment is complicated and the cost is high; for the test of the friction performance between medical sutures, although there are reports in the literature at present, its test method is to test the medical sutures of the same specification that the medical sutures are bent from two opposite sides. The frictional performance between medical sutures can be evaluated by the force value required to pull them out between the threads, but there are no norms and standards for the specific operating parameters of the test, and this threading method is different from surgical knotting, so it is different from surgical knotting. The actual clinical use is not well connected

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and method for testing the friction performance of medical sutures when they penetrate into tissues and the friction performance between medical sutures. Background technique [0002] The friction performance of medical suture is one of the important performances of its surgical operation, mainly including the friction performance between the thread and the tissue when the medical suture penetrates into human tissue and the mutual friction between the thread and the thread when the medical suture is knotted. performance. The former can be expressed by the force required when the medical suture passes through the tissue, that is, the tissue drag force. In clinical suture, when the medical suture passes through the human tissue, if the surface is relatively rough, the tissue drag force will be large, which will affect the suture quality. . The latter refers to the force required for medical sutures to slide against eac...
