Aerothermotherapy using hot air effectively stopped bleeding in rabbit liver resections. While superficial muscle necrosis occurred in some back wounds, careful control of temperature, distance, and time can prevent burns, making it a potential hemostasis supplement.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Innovation
  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Hemostasis is critical in surgical procedures.
  • Conventional methods may have limitations.
  • Exploring novel techniques like aerothermotherapy is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate aerothermotherapy for hemostasis and tissue reactions.
  • To assess the efficacy of a hot air coagulator in a simulated surgical setting.
  • To determine safety and potential complications of the technique.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective, double-blind animal pilot study on rabbits.
  • Symmetrical incisions on rabbit backs, with one randomized to aerothermotherapy.
  • Temperature monitoring using thermistors during treatment.

  • Histological examination of excised wounds postoperatively.
  • Application in liver resection models to assess bleeding control.

    • Main Results:

    • No general wound complications were observed.
    • Superficial muscular cell necrosis noted in 3/5 hot-air-treated back wounds.
    • Effective hemostasis achieved for bleeding from liver resection surfaces.
    • Critical parameters identified: temperature, distance, and application time.

    Conclusions:

    • Aerothermotherapy shows promise for hemostasis, particularly in liver resections.
    • Careful management of application parameters is crucial to avoid tissue damage (burns).
    • The hot air coagulator can potentially supplement existing hemostatic methods.
