In this video, you will learn the Basic Level Suturing Techniques on Simutomy's Suture Pads.

Watch & Learn:

1. Simple Sutures

Suture passed through both the edges at equal depth, and then a knot is tied. This type of suture technique is more commonly practiced. It is a strong suture technique. This suture ensures that even if one suture gapes, entire wound does not gape or no loosening of other sutures.

2. Simple Continuous Sutures

This technique is quick, easily removable, ensures adequate hemostasis and distributes tension equally along the length. But if the suture gapes from any one point then the entire suture line is compromised.

3. Simple Continuous Interlocking Sutures

It is similar to a simple continuous suture except every turn is locked. The suture line is perpendicular to the incision and locking prevents progressive tightening of the suture as the wound closure progresses.

4. Vertical Mattress Sutures

This technique of suturing is preferred in areas where wound contraction can lead to scar dehiscence or broad scar formation. The pattern of suturing is 'Far- Far- Near - Near' bites of the tissue. The knot is perpendicular to the wound, and the bites are deep for 'Far-Far' bites and superficial for 'Near-Near' bites. This avoids tension on the approximated edges and prevents inversion of wound edges. However, this technique leads to poor cosmesis.
