Abstract:
:Delayed sternal closure following cardiothoracic surgery facilitates the treatment of heart failure and arrhythmias caused by sternal closure, and also allows access to treat uncontrollable bleeding. The present study examines the use of stents made from disposable syringes for keeping the sternum open. The syringes demonstrated good strength, as well as resistance to tapping during pulmonary physical therapy and stability against body movement necessary to prevent the formation of decubitus ulcers. Thus, the proposed stent provides an inexpensive, easy, and effective method for keeping the sternum open.
