Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose to Decrease Vaginal Cuff Complications
Cuvinte cheie
Abstract
Descriere
Structured non-woven absorbable hemostat (or oxidized regenerated cellulose) was designed and marketed for its hemostatic properties. It is used in our practice to achieve hemostasis at the site of the vaginal cuff closure during laparoscopic hysterectomy. While the hemostatic properties of oxidized regenerated cellulose are well known and documented, there is newer research to suggest that oxidized regenerated cellulose may have antimicrobial activity. One In vitro study investigated the antimicrobial activity of oxidized regenerated cellulose products against multiple antibiotic resistant microorganisms and found that the antimicrobial affect of the oxidized regenerated cellulose products was significantly greater than that of the controls. There are a limited number of studies investigating the antimicrobial activity of oxidized regenerated cellulose products in vivo (and none in gynecologic surgery).
