How It Works:
Overview: Surgical Drills
Surgical drills are an indispensable tool in the field of medical surgery. They belong to a broader category of medical devices known as
Cutting Tools.
The primary function of a surgical drill is to create precision holes or openings in the bone during surgery. These precision devices are commonly used in orthopedic, dental, ENT, and neurosurgical procedures.
Working Mechanism of Surgical Drills
Surgical drills operate on a high-speed rotation mechanism which, when applied to the bone with minimum pressure, cuts or drills through it.
Two key components of a surgical drill are the handpiece and the drill bit. The
handpiece is the part of the drill held by the surgeon which houses the motor mechanism. The
drill bit is the component with a sharp, spiraling edge that is inserted into the bone to create the desired hole or opening.
Most modern surgical drills are designed with
ergonomic considerations to reduce surgeon fatigue during prolonged procedures. They also feature adjustable speed controls to provide the surgeon with greater control during the procedure.
Safety Measures
As with any medical device, using a surgical drill necessitates stringent safety measures. Excessive pressure or uncontrolled speed can result in thermal necrosis in the bone leading to delayed healing or even infection. To counter this, state-of-the-art surgical drills are often equipped with an internal irrigation system that cools the drill bit to prevent heat buildup.
Furthermore, sterilization of the drill prior to every procedure is critical in preventing post-operative infections.
Conclusion
Surgical drills are a cornerstone in many surgical practices. Ensuring their proper usage and adherence to safety protocols can greatly enhance surgical outcomes. Before adopting a new drill into their surgical armamentarium, surgeons must understand the device's functioning, capabilities, and safety features fully.
