    This was fun to watch and took me back to university. Every surgeon learned suturing more or less like that.
    And @NerdECrafter: the reason why your suture with the ketchup looked strange is because you sometimes went under and sometimes in the loop you created with the end of the thread. What you were supposed to do were Lembert sutures (I guess) and you did lock stitch (my favorite btw).
    And: Reusable suture needles do exist. Also using suture/thread out of a big box is cheaper, so we do use it a lot in veterinary medicine. But yes, one then has to start threading in the middle of surgery. Luckily we usually have great assistants by our sides to prepare everything.
    Love to all you vet nurses/techs/assistants out there :)

    I'm a theatre nurse (OR) and we call them haemostats. It includes needle clamps, tissue holders and other forceps. It just depended on what the doctor (carded information along with needle and thread preferences). We just in our counts called them haemostats (five curved, five straight and so no). The running stitch was wrong because you brought the needle over the thread kind of like a blanket stitch. But awesome effort! Swabs are used for cleaning.

      I went to the ER with a horrible bladder infection after having an abdominal Hysterectomy. Due to bladder injury during surgery I had to have a catheter for 12 miserable horrid days. At the ER I asked for something for the pain, after all I was just released from a 3 night stay in the castle, the male nurse named Shannon, told me to go home and take extra strength Tylenol. After all, you are the medical professional telling a woman that just had a full abdominal hysterectomy only 3 days prior that presented with a bad bladder infection to go home and take Tylenol. I was not happy. Hell, if I had to go home for medicine I would just have taken the pain medicine I was prescribed. Yeah, not a great experience.

    YES JACKIE!!
    The issue with the stitch is you are catching the tensioned string with your needle - like, with the string you're holding with your hand, it is overlapping with the "working" string... so instead of / / / / you get ]/ ]/. So you will want to keep the tension string to the left of the working string, like your second or third stitch!

Dramatic, hysterical, isn't that bad, just wants drugs. Completely silent? Eh, must not be that bad, you're fine, go take some advil, you don't need any drugs.
      It's even worse for women of color, since there are some medical text books that were used not long ago (Go watch Doctor Mike on this), that say "black people have a higher pain tolerance." Not only do women of color have to deal with sexism in medicine, they deal w racism.

      Until you can get a doctor to look at it, it’s really best to use some butterfly bandages to hold together the wound (if it’s small enough), or wrap it tightly after disinfecting it. Otherwise you can trap an infection under the skin and end up with things like sepsis, which can kill in a matter of hours.

    She’s out here doing a blanket stitch on a ‘person’! One thing I do to keep the thread from slipping through the eye is thread the needle with the yarn folded over and before letting it slip through, guide the needle back in the loop you just threaded. So a folded thread goes through the eye, then the needle goes through that said loop. It forms a little ‘knot’ keeping the need;e in place while you work. Hope that helps

    I don’t know if anyone’s suggested this to you, but you can simulate the thread being attached to a sewing needle like it is on the suture needle. You just double amount of thread you would need, pull the two ends evenly together and knot them. I hope this makes sense. It also adds the bonus of securing the thread at the start of your sewing.

    I've taken several medical/anatomy courses during my Animal Science program (I now have a BS!) and one of the coolest parts was practicing sutures on raw chicken XD You Don't want to pull the closing knot super tight, you want the skin just flush so it heals more easily and doesn't leave lumps.
    Closer to the end of semester, we did a couple small meaningless surgeries on rats like neutering. We choose our rats before this and I picked the sweetest most social ones. It was very clear who had no experience with rats before. But that day, we spent the whole lab playing with our rats ♥️
    I'm thankful to now have the experience and knowledge to possibly help in emergency situations and a great base of I wanted to go into a medical career in my field. And aseptic procedure 🙏 very important
    Also, different suture materials are for different types of cuts and locations. Like a nylon would be on the surface and be removed after a couple weeks (non absorbable). Whereas bio materials, we called it "catgut", would be used internally and would dissolve over time. And thicker guage would be used in thicker tissue. Like the size here could be used on small animals, all the way to people. But a cow would require thicker guage.
    Edit: it's an easy mistake, but the technique was not bad, you just didn't make sure each sure was free from the last. When doing the running stitch you don't want the next suture to be hooked on the last or it pulls like in the video and gets lumpy. 😅

    I grew up with both parents in the medical field, and my mom worked as an operating room nurse, so I actually grew up playing with the instruments she sometimes brought home, both for our emergency kit, and occasionally for crafting. I considered becoming a doctor like my dad, but I'm not a people person, so it didn't happen, but I've inherited a deep curiosity for medical procedures, and way more knowledge about all kinds of surgeries for a non-professional. This kit looks super interesting!
    I don't know about the different filaments, but there are different types for stitching deeper tissues (which melt on their own), and different thicknesses, too. A cut on the face needs smaller stitches to avoid scars, but if you are getting a knee replacement, on a mobile area, the stitches need to be sturdy. And, if the cut is deep, there are usually the melting stitches in the deeper tissues to keep everything together, and then smaller stitches to keep the skin together. Fascinating stuff!
    Also, the scalpels and needles are really handy in crafting. I upholstered an armchair once, and mainly used a surgical needle to sew a decorative ribbon on it.

    Ok this is actually really cool from Amazon! I grew up a HUGE health science nerd and was very into human anatomy and physiology. I remember I made a cute diagram of the human heart with clay and put little markers as to where each part of the heart was. I had dreams of being an EMT or a trauma nurse. But sadly, I went thru a huge depression, lost my mom and gave everything up. I even threw away my diagram. I'm still mad at myself for doing that. But, I plan to become a body piercer and body modification technician (doing tongue splits and ear pointing) and I feel like this would be cool to practice my stitching. Obviously I'm not gonna do them on myself but I always had this inquisitive brain as a child. I was known as a kinesthetic learner where I enjoyed hands on activities and projects in school. I just loved learning new things. I have a new lease on life after experiencing the worst 3 years of my life and coming out a stronger person. Thank you for your videos Jackie.

    Your issue with the running stitch was when you pulled the needle through, it was caught in the "loop" that the thread you were keeping tension on made. That's why you have those sort of horizontal bits between the stitches. The stitch at 29:30 is the only one where it was held out of the way, so it doesn't have those extra bits and looks more like his. If you ever want to try this again, try holding the tension of the excess string off to the other side so it doesn't get caught when you pull it through.

    Just an FYI: The locking handles are common to many medical instruments. In this case, they're for safety - you can lock the needle drivers around the needle while you tie the knots, so you don't accidentally drop the needle. (I am a nurse and we are EXTREMELY careful with sharps.) The reason they include different types of suture material is likely to familiarize students with them, as different kinds of suture materials are used for different things - for example, absorbable sutures such as Vicryl or Chromic are used for suturing internal structures and for suturing mucosal surfaces, such as suturing a tear after a woman gives birth, while non-absorbable sutures are used more commonly for suturing skin. Different types of materials may also be used for different areas of the skin, for purposes such as minimizing scarring (for example, if you're suturing on someone's face) or holding skin together in areas where there's a lot of movement. There are also different kinds of suture techniques, again, varying based on factors such as skin movement, size of the wound, etc. I've received additional education to permit me to work in remote areas where we don't have physicians, and I've been taught to use a suture technique called simple interrupted sutures. I was surprised when I first observed suturing, to learn that it is quite different from sewing fabric! (Which is something I also enjoy.)

    I’m a vet tech & at my veterinary hospital for surgery we use “vicryl” which is similar to the filaments you have. The vicryl is used subcutaneously and is absorbable. We also use skin suture which are the sutures that you see on the outside of the skin. With skin suture, the doctor actually does have to thread the needle.

      @gggthsb 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends though, there are lots of non absorbable suture materials for skin sutures that come with the needle attached as well. In my experience it strongly depends on the likes of the vets what they use.

    Fun fact! Although it's called "catgut" it's actually dervied from cow guts making it a biodegradable suture, so no need to get the stitches removed. The body just breaks it down! It's usually used on mucosa like the mouth.

    I think you did a blanket stitch rather than a running stitch, because you were pulling the needle out of the skin inside the loop of thread. But I've definitely seen stitches that looked like that in the past...

    Great job Jackie. The only reason your running stitch looked different was because you were pulling your needle out through the loop. Basically on the wrong side of the string! But AMAZING job!

    You mixed the runnig sutures with the reverdin sutures, which is a fast technic for skin stitches, if you have a big surgery wound to close.

    @AlineSantos.wolf3n 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love it haha As a veterinarian's assistant, these are non absorbable filaments and the difference is in the type and amount of tension each one supports. There is also an alternative, especially in poorer places, where we use pre-assembled, sterilized and cheaper syringe needles and fishing string for simple sutures.

    My husband got a bad cut on his big toe, and had it stitched up at Urgent Care. While there he told the doctor that his wife was a seamstress and he was confident she (I), could take the stitches out. The doctor sent him home with a hemostat and the fancy scissors and about 3 weeks (or whatever the time frame the doctor recommended), later, I did take his stitches out, without any complications!
    I kept those tiny scissors too, I use them for trimming threads when I sew!

    The difference of the filaments is that the monofilaments are better for keeping bacteria out but the braided are better in holding up knots. There are fake braided ones aswell to give a better knottinggrip. As far as i saw yours were all non absorbable. There are absorbable ones aswell but they get used for inner sutures. At least thats how we use them in our vetclinic.
