In this section, we will review some of the main features and functions of the basic surgical instruments that are used in most surgical procedures. These instruments include:
Scalpels: These are sharp blades that are used to make incisions in the skin and other tissues. They come in different sizes and shapes, depending on the type and location of the surgery. Scalpels can be disposable or reusable, and they can have fixed or detachable blades.
Forceps: These are instruments that are used to grasp, hold, or manipulate tissues or objects. They have two branches that can be straight or curved, and they can have different types of tips, such as serrated, smooth, toothed, or fenestrated. Forceps can be used for various purposes, such as hemostasis, dissection, extraction, or suturing.
Scissors: These are instruments that are used to cut or trim tissues or materials. They have two blades that can be straight or curved, and they can have different types of edges, such as sharp, blunt, or mixed. Scissors can be used for various purposes, such as dissection, transection, excision, or coagulation.
Retractors: These are instruments that are used to expose or separate tissues or organs during surgery. They have one or more blades that can be flat or curved, and they can have different types of handles, such as fixed, adjustable, or self-retaining. Retractors can be used for various purposes, such as visualization, access, protection, or traction.
Sutures: These are materials that are used to close wounds or join tissues. They can be natural or synthetic, absorbable or non-absorbable, monofilament or multifilament. Sutures can have different characteristics, such as tensile strength, elasticity, biocompatibility, or knot security.
Needles: These are devices that are used to pass sutures through tissues. They have a pointed tip and an eye that can be closed or open. Needles can have different shapes, such as straight, curved, half-curved, or compound-curved. Needles can also have different types of tips, such as cutting, tapered, reverse-cutting, or blunt.
Needle holders: These are instruments that are used to hold and manipulate needles during suturing. They have two branches that can be straight or curved, and they have a locking mechanism that can be ratchet or spring-loaded. Needle holders can also have different types of jaws, such as smooth, serrated, grooved, or tungsten-carbide.
These are some of the basic surgical instruments that are essential for any surgeon. However, there are many more instruments that are specific for each surgical specialty and procedure. In the following chapters, we will explore the instruments used in different areas of surgery and their applications.
