… tension. We neither have reliable information about the dynamics of suture tension after a
suture has been accomplished nor a data base allowing us to define ‘adequate’ suture tension …

… When using the tensioning device, our goal is to transform the flexible suture into a rigid
bar, similar to a bolt (or a rivet), to induce compression of the coracoid bone block against the …

… The primary finding of this study is that the use of a tensioning device for suture fixation of …
compared to hand-tensioned constructs. Further, device-tensioned SB constructs exhibited …

… Although the device may be used as an adjunct to conventional sutured closures, it is also
… device. Unlike the inflatable tissue expander, the tension vector with the suture tension …

… device called the Miami Suture Tension Adjustment Reel (STAR) has been used successfully
as a skin-stretching device … In this study we report the experimental use of the STAR device …

… with appropriate tensioning during … tensioning. The purpose of this article is to present an
easy and safe technique for acquisition of appropriate tensioning using a tensioning device for …

… Another shortcoming of wound closure using sutures is the lack of appropriate tension control.
It is generally recognized that high tensions exerted by sutures and applied to the wound …

… sutures fixated with a new tensioning device on a 4-part proximal PHF model treated with
RSA. We hypothesized that cerclage sutures tightened with a tensioning device … sutures in a …
