What equipment is needed for breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, which can increase the size and fullness of breast by implanting prosthesis. This operation requires a series of professional equipment to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the operation. The following details the equipment required for breast augmentation surgery in terms of operating room equipment, anesthesia equipment, surgical instruments and implants.
Operating room equipment
A fully equipped operating room is required for breast augmentation surgery to ensure the safety and health of the operation. The operating room shall be equipped with operating table, operating lamp, monitor, electric aspirator, disinfection equipment and other equipment. The operating table needs to have proper fixation function to ensure the comfort and stability of the patient during the operation. The operating lamp needs to be able to provide enough light source so that doctors can clearly observe the surgical area. The monitor is used to monitor the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation and other indicators in real time to ensure the patient's safety during the operation. The electric aspirator is used to clear the blood and tissue fluid in the surgical area and maintain the clarity of the surgical field of vision. Disinfection equipment is used to sterilize surgical instruments and patients' skin to reduce the risk of infection.
Anesthesia equipment
Breast augmentation surgery usually requires local anesthesia or general anesthesia, so corresponding anesthesia equipment is required. Local anesthesia usually uses equipment such as local anesthetic drugs and anesthetic syringes to make the surgical area painless through local injection of anesthetic drugs. General anesthesia requires the use of general anesthesia machine and corresponding anesthetics. The general anesthesia machine can monitor the vital signs of patients such as breathing, blood pressure and heart rate, and control the delivery of anesthetic drugs. The anesthesia process needs to be monitored and operated by a professional anesthetist to ensure the safety and effect of anesthesia.
Surgical instruments
Breast augmentation surgery requires a series of surgical instruments, including scalpel, scissors, stapler, suture, hemostatic forceps, etc. The scalpel is used to cut the skin and tissue, so that doctors can enter the surgical area. Scissors are used to cut and trim tissue to meet the needs of implant prosthesis. The stapler and suture are used to suture the tissue to make it heal. The hemostatic forceps are used to clamp and control the bleeding vessels to maintain the clarity of the surgical area and the hemostatic effect.
Implant prosthesis
The key part of breast augmentation surgery is implant prosthesis, so it is also very important to select the appropriate implant prosthesis. Common implants include saline implants and silicone implants. The saline implant prosthesis is a kind of filler, which can increase the breast size by injecting saline into the implant prosthesis. Silicone implant prosthesis is a kind of elastic prosthesis, which is suitable for those patients who pursue true texture and natural touch. The implanted prosthesis should have high safety and biocompatibility, and be able to maintain its shape and size stably for a long time.
To sum up, breast augmentation surgery requires a series of equipment, including operating room equipment, anesthesia equipment, surgical instruments and implants. The use of these devices can ensure the safety and effectiveness of surgery and provide ideal surgical results for patients.
