General
- A scalpel is a small but
extremely sharp knife used for surgery, anatomical dissection, and
various arts and crafts.
- Scalpels may be disposable or
re-usable.
- Scalpel blades are usually of
hardened and tempered steel.
- Surgical scalpels consist of
two parts, a blade and a handle.
- A laser scalpel is a scalpel
for surgery, cutting or ablating living biological tissue by the
energy of laser light.
The Futura Safety Scalpel is the only safety scalpel currently on
the market that employs automated retraction.
Application
- Flat scalpel handles are
readily available and frequently used for all types of incisions,
whether rounded, straight, or a combination of both.
- Diamond scalpel blades have
been used in a wide range of applications, from ophthalmology
(cataracts, refractive surgery, glaucoma), plastic/cosmetic surgery
(face lifts, eye lid), neurosurgery to the microdissection of tissue
samples.
- Scalpels have a thousand uses
in the hospital including the placement of specialized catheters,
removing growths, and in trimming tissue when aligning and
customizing wound closures.
Scalpel is used for determining the calorific value of a fuel oil.
Technology
- The
no-scalpel vasectomy is a refined technique developed by a Chinese
surgeon. Instead of using a scalpel to make one or two small cuts in
the scrotum, as in the conventional vasectomy, the physician uses a
special sharp instrument to make a tiny puncture in the scrotum.
- The effects of excursion,
frequency, and application force on the cutting rate of an
ultrasonic surgical instrument such as the Harmonic Scalpel can be
examined using therapeutic ultrasound technology.
- The surgical treatment of
agespecific facial and brow wrinkles and folds by the subcutaneous
dissection technique can be improved using a new surgical device,
the so-called wire scalpel.
Process
- New diode-pumped solid-state
lasers doped with thulium can be wavelength-tuned around the local
water absorption peak at 1.94µm, making them attractive as versatile
laser scalpels.
- A fine layer of a ceramic
material based on titanium oxide that groups together bactericidal
and anti-microbe properties on the surface of medical and dental
instruments such as scalpels, pincers and drills for creating a
nanostructured material that is self-sterilizing.
- Two broad approaches developed
by manufacturers to improve scalpel safety 1. Safety Scalpels. 2.
Combination of single handed scalpel blade remover with a passing
tray.
Report and Market
- Sharpless surgical techniques
include laparoscopy, electrocautery can replace scalpel incisions,
and skin clips or glue instead of sewing to close or repair wounds.
- Surgical blades and scalpels
make up a $50 million annual market, with sales increases and
decreases varying among the individual niche market.
- A Supplier is likely to target
the emergency room market with the new product, where sales of
disposable scalpels are growing because of the increasing number of
patients infected with HIV.
- In the specialty blade and
scalpel market, ophthalmic scalpels account for the largest increase
in sales. Other specialty blade markets, such as those used for
podiatry and ear, nose and throat surgery, are stable.
