Suture ( Stitches )
Sutures are used by your doctor to close wounds to your skin or other tissues. When your doctor sutures a wound, they’ll use a needle attached to a length of “thread” to stitch the wound shut.
There are a variety of available materials that can be used for suturing. Your doctor will choose a material that’s appropriate for the wound or procedure.
The different types of sutures can be classified in many ways.
First, suture material can be classified as either absorbable or nonabsorbable.
Absorbable sutures don’t require your doctor to remove them. This is because enzymes found in the tissues of your body naturally digest them.
Nonabsorbable sutures will need to be removed by your doctor at a later date or in some cases left in permanently.

Surgical Sutures and Needles
Sutures and needles are commonly used for wound closure in surgery. Historically, various natural materials like plant fibers and animal tissues have been used for sutures dating back to Ancient Egypt. In modern times, sutures can be classified based on properties like absorbability, tensile strength and origin. Choosing the appropriate suture and needle type depends on factors like the tissue, wound characteristics and healing properties. Proper use and handling of sutures and needles is important for optimal surgical outcomes and minimal tissue trauma.
Sutures emad
Sutures are stitches used by doctors and surgeons to hold tissues together after injury or surgery. Ideal suture materials are strong, non-toxic, flexible, prevent fluid penetration, and have predictable absorption rates. Suturing promotes wound healing, prevents complications like infection and hemorrhage, and holds tissues in proper position. Different suture materials, needles, and techniques are used depending on the tissue and surgery. Absorbable synthetic or natural materials dissolve over time, while non-absorbable materials like silk, nylon or polypropylene remain indefinitely.
Types of Absorbable Sutures
Absorbable sutures are sutures that are broken down and absorbed by the body over time, usually between 10 days to 8 weeks. They are mainly used internally since they will dissolve and not need removal. Common absorbable suture materials include catgut, synthetic polymers like polyglycolic acid (PGA), polyglactin 910 and polydioxanone. Each has properties like tensile strength retention over time, absorption timeframe, and tissue reaction, making some more suitable for different surgical applications. Absorbable sutures eliminate the need for suture removal and lessen complications compared to non-absorbable sutures.

The problem however is that in radiationenvironment they suffer in their durability and mechanical strength. Composite materials are now being examined, such as Glass fibre. But their behaviour in an ionising radiation flux over a long period is not known.
Filtration
For decades, different types of fibers have provided numerous unique solutions in filtration applications. In filtration / filter aid applications fiber provides a protective layer to valuable equipments promoting improved throughput and clarity.

High pr aero
This document provides an overview of the application of high-performance fibers in aerospace technology. It discusses several high-performance fibers including carbon, Kevlar, boron nitride, and others that are used in aerospace due to their properties such as high strength, heat and chemical resistance. These fibers find application in space suits and spacecraft where they provide thermal insulation and protection from radiation. Space suits in particular use multiple layers of different fiber materials to provide functions like cooling, pressure resistance and impact protection for astronauts. Overall, high-performance fibers allow for lighter, stronger and more durable materials for use in aerospace and space exploration applications.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoring
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

Surgical suture
- 1. Presented By:- Amal Ray Roll No:-02 Stream:-MTT GUIDED BY-Sajal Burman GETTS, Serampore
- 2. Surgical suture serve as a means of wound closure and tissue approximation. Suture bring together and maintain the tissue on each side of a wound until the natural healing process has provided a sufficient level of wound strength.
- 3. Provide Strength and flexibility until wound healing is over. Highly uniform tensile strength, permitting use of finer size Non-capillary, non-allergenic, and non-carcinogenic Consistent uniform diameter Easy to handle, ties down well, provides optimum knot security Minimally reactive in tissue and not predisposed to bacterial growth Resistant to shrinking in tissues Absorbed completely with minimal tissue reaction after serving its purpose
- 4. There are many different types of suture. The most important types are.. 1. Absorbable suture 2. Non-absorbable suture 3. Braided suture 4. Non-Braided suture
- 5. Absorbable suture breaks down over time in the body. Examples of absorbable suture are- Polyglycolic Acid (Dexon) Polyglactin (Vicryl) Polydioxone (PDS) Polyglyconate (Maxon) When used on the skin,these sutures will be removed however when used in the body they will retained inside the tissue. Polyamide (Nylon) Polyester (Dacron) Polypropylene (Prolene Absorbable suture Non-absorbable suture
- 6. Braided suture have a number of standswoven together like a string. Examples of braided suture are silk, vicryl etc. Non-braided or monofilament suture have a single stand such as monocryl, ethilon nylon etc. Braided suture Non-braided suture
- 7. 1. Natural Absorbable sutures 2. Synthetic Absorbable sutures 3. Non absorbable Materials :
- 8. These sutures are prepared either from the collagen of healthy mammals. Some are absorbed rapidly, while others are treated or chemically structured to lengthen absorption time ( Chromic ). Absorbed/ digested by body enzymes which attack and break down the suture strand. Plain sutures are absorbed in 70 days measurable tensile str Chromic sutures are absorbed in over 90 days with measurable tensile strength for 14-21 days ength for 7- 10 days. Natural Absorbable sutures
- 9. They are made of polymer strands which are braided and impregnated or coated with agents that improve their handling properties and colored with dyes to increase visibility in tissue. Synthetic absorbable sutures are hydrolyzed -- a process by which water gradually penetrates the suture filaments, causing the breakdown of the suture's polymer chain. Absorption normally completes in 60-90 days. Exp - Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) Synthetic Absorbable sutures
- 10. Non-absorbable sutures are those, which are not digested by body enzymes or hydrolyzed in body tissue. They may be used in a variety of applications : 1. Exterior skin closure - to be removed after sufficient healing has occurred. 2. Within the body cavity, where they will remain permanently encapsulated in tissue. Non absorbable Materials
