The surgical staplers are used in surgical procedures to close or seal the wound or the incised portion of the body. Surgical staplers can be used to close or seal both internal as well as external wounds. Surgical staplers are made of titanium or stainless steel (or iron, plastic, chromium, or sometimes nickel) and are usually used to close deep lacerations which are not appropriate for ordinary stitches, or areas of the body under high tension. They work by compressing tissue, joining two pieces of tissue with staggered rows of B-shaped surgical staples, and in some models, cutting off excess tissue to create a clean closure of the wound. The surgical staplers were first developed in the 20th century and have since been used as a mode of mechanical suturing in many surgical procedures. They are usually used in complex surgical procedures such as gastrointestinal, thoracic, and gynecologic procedures. Moreover, they are widely used over surgical sutures due to advantages such as quic

Process oil is used in polymer manufacturing as an additive, catalyst, carrier, lubricant, emulsifier, and lubrication carrier. Depending on the kind, the polymer segment is estimated to command the largest market share through the forecast period. Usage is increasing because of its high flexibility over a wide range of polymer systems. However, this versatile ingredient may also have disadvantages for specific applications. The usefulness of process oil depends on several factors, such as its viscosity, solubility, molecular weight, solubility energy, and temperature. Its low-temperature ability results in process oil that does not stick and leave a layer of droplets behind after dispersion. This feature is especially useful in making thin-film emulsions, where emulsification of dissolved substances is important. In other cases, the oil crystalizes into droplets, which may form clumpy droplets with a high concentration of dissolved matter. Process oil is mixed with low-temperature wa

Krill oil is fish oil that has been harvested from an oily, minuscule, shrimp-like marine creature called krill. Many species of whales, dolphins, and other large aquatic animals also eat Krill. In Norwegian, the phrase "krill" means "shrimp food." People often extract the oil from krill and use it as medicine, usually for hypertriglyceridemia, heart disease, and high blood levels of triglycerides in the bloodstream (high cholesterol). As mentioned above, the use of Krill Oil is for treating conditions like hypertriglyceridity, fatty liver, and heart disease. However, there are several other conditions that may benefit from the oil. Krill Oil is an excellent source of essential fatty acids. It has been shown to lower cholesterol and to regulate blood glucose levels. Fish oil contains essential fatty acids as well as several antioxidants. Antioxidants reduce the buildup of cholesterol in the arteries. In addition, they help protect the cells lining the inside of the

Peripherally inserted, or PICC as it is also known, catheters are usually used for long-lasting, one-time access to a specific body part. The catheter can be a very valuable tool in medical care especially for those patients who have had their circulatory systems compromised by surgery or an accident. The use of a catheter introduced via a vein makes this procedure much more comfortable for the patient because the catheter is placed in an area that is out of the way and hidden from view. Patients who undergo short-term access to a specific body part via the use of a PICC are far less likely to develop complications than those who use typical long-acting peripheral venous access devices. These devices can cause several complications if not used properly because they are made of thin, hollow needles. This creates an entry point for bacteria that can lead to infection and also cause nausea and diarrhea.  Increasing expenditure on the healthcare industry coupled with the rise in the preval

  Vascular Closure Device (VCD) was introduced to medical practice in 1994. The primary purpose of these therapeutic devices is to reduce complications following percutaneous mini-bullet and femoral artery access and improve patient comfort during surgery. One of the major advantages of a VCD is the prevention of femoral artery recession or femoral artery wall crush. These devices are placed around the femoral artery or the largest artery in the body, the femoral artery originates from the tibia to the knee and provides one of the major blood flow to the leg. This large artery is susceptible to early narrowing by plaque buildup from within, particularly from small platelets, microVascular Closure Device-organisms, and atherosclerotic plaques. Plaque can easily deposit onto the arterial walls and restrict blood flow, leading to the decreased blood supply to the leg and painful symptoms such as leg pain, tingling, numbness, and impaired walking. A VCD prevents or greatly reduces the risk
