Abstract

The problem of stopping bleeding remains one of the most significant problems of surgery from the moment of its isolation as a separate medical science to the present. Many different traumatic agents and life-threatening living conditions forced the person to look for methods to stop bleeding. Suturing is the basis of individual operative techniques and underlies the solution to the problem of stopping bleeding. Despite the abundance of modern methods of hemostasis in surgical practice XXI century clinicians often prefer ligation of bleeding vessels. However, the research of the force applied by the surgeon to tighten the knot has not been carried out to date and has previously been purely empirical, i.e. was determined visually - until the bleeding stops or until the edges of the wound touch.
