bacterial colonization on different suture materials a potential risk for intraoral dentoalveolar surgery
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B, 2005Co-Authors: Jorgelard Otten, M Wiedmannalahmad, H Jahnke, Klaus PelzAbstract:In this in vivo and in vitro study on resorbable (Monocryl®) and nonresorbable (Deknalon®) monofilament sutures used in intraoral dentoalveolar surgery the bacterial colonization was compared. For the in vivo study the sutures were applied in 11 patients during dental surgery. Eight days postoperative the sutures were removed and the adhered bacteria were isolated and identified by biochemistry, morphology, antibiotic susceptibility, and gaschromatography. The colonization was studied by scanning electron microscopy. Aerobic and anaerobic bacteria were isolated in nearly equal colony-forming units (cfu) on each suture. In comparison with Monocryl® about 15% more aerobic and anaerobic strains were isolated on Deknalon®. Regarding the pathogens only, about three times more anaerobic strains were isolated on both sutures in total. Additionally, more pathogens were found on Deknalon® than on Monocryl® (aerobic >40%, anaerobic >25%). The variety of bacteria correspond with purulent infections, not with normal oral flora. Intraindividual comparisons of cfu showed differences in dependence of the patient as described for subgingivale plaques. For the in vitro study the sutures were incubated with Streptococcus intermedius and Prevotella intermedia for 0.5 h. Scanning electron microscopy was performed to examine qualitatively the level of bacterial adherence. After 0.5 h the bacteria adhered very well. The colonization rate of Streptococcus intermedius on both sutures was similar. Coccoid bacteria within biofilms were seen. The growth of Prevotella intermedia was much better on Deknalon® than on Monocryl®. The risk of bacteremia at the time of suture removal is discussed. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Octyl-2-cyanoacrylate Tissue Glue (Dermabond) versus Monocryl 6 × 0 Sutures in Lip Closure:
The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal, 2006Co-Authors: Paul H.m. Spauwen, W.a. De ,laat, Ed H.m. HartmanAbstract:Abstract Objective: To assess the value of octyl-2-cyanoacrylate tissue glue in lip closure versus Monocryl stitches. Design: Closure of a cleft lip can be done using transcutaneous Monocryl 6 × 0 sutures or using octyl-2-cyanoacrylate tissue glue (Dermabond). In 15 consecutive patients, the cleft lip was closed with Monocryl 6 × 0 and in another 15 consecutive patients, Dermabond was applied. Outcome parameters were complications, satisfaction of the parents with the cosmetic result, and the cosmetic result as judged by professionals. Satisfaction of the parents was assessed using a questionnaire and a visual analog scale. The cosmetic result as judged by professionals was measured by rating standardized pictures according to a visual analog scale. Setting: A tertiary referral center for children with craniofacial anomalies. Results: Complications were equal in both patient groups (p = .273). Satisfaction of the parents, as well as the professionals, with the cosmetic result did not show significant diff...

The role of suture material in hypertrophic scar formation: Monocryl vs. Vicryl-rapide.
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1997Co-Authors: Frank B. Niessen, Paul H.m. Spauwen, Moshe KonAbstract:The development of hypertrophic scars and keloids is an unsolved problem in the process of wound healing. There are indications that inflammation plays an important role in this process, but its exact mechanism remains unclear. In this study the amount of inflammation and the development of hypertrophic scars and keloids was investigated in inframammary skin incisions sutured with synthetic absorbable suture materials: a monofilamentous suture (Monocryl) compared with a multifilamentous suture (Vicryl-rapide). In 81 breast reduction patients Monocryl (N = 28) has proved to give significantly smaller, less reactive scars with a lower tendency toward hypertrophic scar formation compared with Vicryl-rapide (N = 53).

randomized controlled trial of wound complication rates of subcuticular suture vs staples for skin closure at cesarean delivery
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2009Co-Authors: Suzanne L Basha, Meredith Rochon, Joanne N Quinones, Kara M Coassolo, Orion A Rust, John C. SmulianAbstract:Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the wound complication rates and patient satisfaction for subcuticular suture vs staples for skin closure at cesarean delivery. Study Design This was a randomized prospective trial. Subjects who underwent cesarean delivery were assigned randomly to stainless steel staples or subcuticular 4.0 Monocryl sutures. The primary outcomes were composite wound complication rate and patient satisfaction. Results A total of 435 patients were assigned randomly. Staple closure was associated with a 4-fold increased risk of wound separation (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 4.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.07–10.52; P P P = .63). Conclusion Use of staples for cesarean delivery closure is associated with an increased risk of wound complications. Occurrence of a wound complication is the most important factor that influenced patient satisfaction.
