Suturing Training

Key take aways: 

  • Enter at 90° 
  • Two throws for the first knot, one throw for the subsequent knots
  • Place the needle driver in BETWEEN the two strings before creating loops (students sometimes place it behind)
  • When tying down the knots, alternate where the short/long end gets pulled towards
  • Consider palming the needle driver rather than having fingers inside the holes

I think all schools should have a med zero, because I really misunderstood what family med is all about.
