Surgical Manipulation Application

Surgical manipulation application is the use of controlled surgical actions to access, reposition, repair, or modify biological tissues and structures, making it a practical interface between clinical procedures and bioengineering. It works through carefully directed mechanical forces, instrument-tissue interactions, and procedure-specific handling under sterile conditions, while accounting for anatomy, tissue properties, and healing constraints. In bioengineering, these applications support the placement of implants, evaluation of biomaterials, development of surgical tools, and testing of tissue-engineered constructs. Understanding how tissues respond to manipulation helps researchers improve procedural precision, reduce injury, and design technologies that integrate more effectively with the body.

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment as a Useful Adjunctive Tool for Pneumonia

0 Views •

Cited by 50 •

2014

Pneumonia is one of the top ten leading causes of death in the U.S. Osteopathic manipulative techniques (OMT) may be utilized as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of pneumonia to enhance biomechanical and immune function; and ultimately, to reduce hospital stay, duration of antibiotics, incidence of respiratory failure, and mortality. In this video-article, we will review randomized controlled studies on the use of OMT in pneumonia patients, as well as demonstrate specific hands-on...

2017

Different methods to manipulate three-dimensional architecture in protein-based hydrogels are evaluated here with respect to material properties. The macroporous networks are functionalized with a cell-adhesive peptide, and their feasibility in cell culture is evaluated using two different model cell lines.

Biophysical Assays to Probe the Mechanical Properties of the Interphase Cell Nucleus: Substrate Strain Application and Microneedle Manipulation

2011

We present two independent, microscope-based tools to measure the induced nuclear and cytoskeletal deformations in single, living adherent cells in response to global or localized strain application. These techniques are used to determine nuclear stiffness (i.e., deformability) and to probe intracellular force transmission between the nucleus and the cytoskeleton.

We describe the simplest protocol to prepare biodegradable medical glue that has an effective hemostatic ability. TAPE is a water-immiscible supramolecular aggregate prepared by mixing of tannic acid, a ubiquitous compound found in plants, and poly(ethylene) glycol, yielding a 2.5 times greater water-resistant adhesion compared with commercial fibrin glue.
