Suture-less Implantation of Acoustic Transmitters in Two Salmonids

Abstract: The surgical incision required to insert acoustic transmitters into fish peritoneal cavities is typically closed with sutures, staples, or cyanoacrylate adhesive. This study evaluated a novel tag insertion technique that did not use any method of wound closure. Twenty-six adult rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and 26 adult brown trout (Salmo trutta) received a small, 6 mm abdominal incision. A dummy acoustic transmitter tag was inserted into half (N = 13) of the fish in each species. Neither group received … Show more

“…The results of this study support the suggestion of Huysman et al [3] that the novel, non-suture, lateral surgical technique can successfully be completed by a surgeon with minimal training or experience. It took the same amount of time for both the experienced and naïve surgeon to complete the novel lateral surgery described by Huysman et al [3] and Kelican et al [4].…”

It took the same amount of time for both the experienced and naïve surgeon to complete the novel lateral surgery described by Huysman et al [3] and Kelican et al [4]. Thus, in addition to eliminating the inflammation caused by sutures, the incision-only technique is also beneficial because it eliminates the need for extensive surgical training.…”
