| Popis: | Objective— To determine failure strength, stiffness, and failure mode of 4 suture materials in equine linea alba. Study Design— Randomized complete block design. Sample Population— Linea albas collected from 12 adult horses (mean weight, 475 kg; mean age, 10 years). Methods— The ventral abdominal fascia, including the linea alba, was collected and bisected along the linea alba into right and left halves. Each half was divided into four, 5-cm sections extending from the umbilicus cranially, and randomly assigned to 1 of 4 suture materials: 2 polydioxanone (2 PD), 3 polyglactin 910 (3 PG), 6 polyglactin 910 (6 PG), and 7 polydioxanone (7 PD). A single cycle to failure test was performed on each specimen at a distraction rate of 100 mm/min. Differences in failure strength and stiffness for the materials were evaluated using a mixed linear model with significance set at P |
