Comparison of tensile strength of continues-core method and 4 strand modifies method of after healing of repaired Kessler rabbit’s Achilles tendon injury

Abstract

Tendon injury causes significant morbidity during the productive age, and the number is increase in recent decades. Tensile strength is the most important factor in tendon function of style, and the results of repair should be able to withstand large current style of early mobilization. This research was an experimental research design with the post-test only control group design with the subject of the rabbit. A total of 18 research subjects who meet the requirements of the study inclusion were randomly divided into treatment and control groups. Control group was a group of rabbits that were repaired with 4 strand modified Kessler technique after Achilles tendon cut sharply. While the treatment group were a group of rabbits that were repaired with continuous-cores technique. The ratio of collagen I/III in rabbit Achilles tendon repair with the technique of continuous-cores are smaller compared to the control group with value of P <0.05. Also Showed statistical analysis tensile strength of rabbit Achilles tendon repair with the technique of continuous-core is greater than the control group at P <0.05.
