We evaluate a new technique of treating scalp lacerations, the hair apposition technique(HAT). After standard cleaning procedures, hair on both sides of a laceration is apposed with a single twist. This is then held with tissue adhesives.

CONT

Un urgentologue me dit qu'il a appris que faire des sutures par apposition, en utilisant les cheveux d'un enfant et de la colle apposée non sur la plaie même, mais sur les cheveux dans lesquels on a fait un nœud, nous mènerait à une guérison supérieure à une suture traditionnelle (avec anesthésie et fil non résorbable). […] La technique HAT est au moins égale ou supérieure à la technique traditionnelle.
