A new method for the measurement of abdominal wound strength in laboratory animals (rats) is described in detail. Preliminary experiments have been carried out and the results reported. These show the suitability of a diaphragm testing technique for measurement of wound strength in that it provides a more meaningful profile of the repair processes in abdominal wounds and makes possible the quantitative measurement of wound healing.
