A novel multilaminate sheet for hernia repair was tested using a ball burst test. This biaxial strength test provides better insights into planar biomaterials like small intestinal submucosa (SIS) than uniaxial tests.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Engineering
  • Tissue Engineering
  • Medical Device Design

Background:

  • Complex biomaterial applications necessitate advanced mechanical characterization beyond uniaxial testing.
  • Characterizing planar materials requires methods that assess in-plane properties.
  • Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is a resorbable biomaterial with potential in tissue repair.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and test a multilaminate sheet for hernia repair.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of ball burst testing for assessing biaxial strength in biomaterials.
  • To investigate the effects of rehydration on the mechanical properties of SIS devices.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a multilaminate sheet device from small intestinal submucosa (SIS).

    • Main Results:

    • Ball burst testing effectively infers in-plane biaxial strength for the hernia repair device.
    • Biaxial testing provides a more accurate representation of planar material properties compared to uniaxial testing.
    • Steady-state mechanical properties for the SIS device were achieved after 5 minutes of rehydration.

    Conclusions:

    • Ball burst testing is a valuable method for characterizing the biaxial mechanical properties of planar biomaterials.
    • The study demonstrates the utility of SIS in a multilaminate sheet for hernia repair applications.
    • Understanding the impact of rehydration is crucial for optimizing the performance of SIS-based medical devices.
