As a consequence, a miniaturized implantable sensor and data logger were developed and applied experimentally in a porcine model to measure suture tension dynamics after laparotomy closure.\r\n\r\nMaterial and methods: We developed an implantable device (6 × 3 × 1 mm) fitted with silicon strain gauges and an implantable data logger allowing long-term registration. In nine domestic pigs, sensors and loggers were implanted along the suture closing a median laparotomy registering suture tension over a period of 23 h.\r\n\r\nResults: Fascial closure was achieved by a mean suture tension of 1.07 N. After 30 minutes, suture tension was reduced to 0.81N (-24.3 %, p = 0.0003). After 12 h, tension showed a further decrease to 0.69 N (-35.5 %, n.s.), after 23 h mean suture tension reached 0.56 N, (-47.7 %, p = 0.014).\r\n\r\nConclusions: The aim to develop an implantable miniaturized sensor device registering long-term suture tension dynamics was achieved. The use in the animal experiment was feasible and safe. We observed a loss of almost 50 % of suture tension 23 h after fascial closure. This could mean that up to 50 % of initial suture tension may be an unnecessary surplus not contributing to tissue stability but to the risk of suture failure","lang":"eng"}],"volume":20,"doi":"10.1007/s10029-015-1433-y","quality_controlled":"1","publisher":"Springer Science and Business Media LLC","author":[{"first_name":"A.","last_name":"Schachtrupp","full_name":"Schachtrupp, A."},{"id":"206920","first_name":"Oliver Utz","orcid":"0000-0003-3223-5050","last_name":"Wetter","full_name":"Wetter, Oliver Utz"},{"full_name":"Höer, J.","last_name":"Höer","first_name":"J."}],"issue":"4","_id":"3237","status":"public","title":"An implantable sensor device measuring suture tension dynamics: results of developmental and experimental work","publication":"Hernia","date_created":"2023-06-15T14:41:03Z","user_id":"245590","citation":{"bibtex":"@article{Schachtrupp_Wetter_Höer_2016, title={An implantable sensor device measuring suture tension dynamics: results of developmental and experimental work}, volume={20}, DOI={<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1007/s10029-015-1433-y\">10.1007/s10029-015-1433-y</a>}, number={4}, journal={Hernia}, publisher={Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, author={Schachtrupp, A. and Wetter, Oliver Utz and Höer, J.}, year={2016}, pages={601–606} }","ama":"Schachtrupp A, Wetter OU, Höer J.
