I'm a LVN pursuing my RN degree, but after watching this video I should have pursued something different. I found this video very interesting. Great job on your skills and techniques
What is the criteria to chose a simple interrupted suture over something like a vertical mattress suture? I got trained on how to perform several types of sutures but they never went over how to decide which one is best on each circumstance. Thanks in advance for the reply
karieltheone it all depends on location or preference. Sometimes vertical mattresses are view as more secure in situations where you think there will be alot of movement such as on a moving joint. For small punctures or cuts They sometimes do a box or figure 8 suture that is done with 1 suture at 4 corners.
Hi Matt thank you for all of your videos, they really helped me prepare for pa application and interview. Today was my interview and I ended up being late, because they changed the interview location. Should I just call it quits now or do I still have a chance to get in?
Nice video. I plan on working in urgent care soon. What other types of sutures do they use in urgent care or should I be familiar with beside the simple interrupted?
Ariel Chasipanta most of the sutures that I do in the urgent care are simple interrupted. The lacerations that you see should be straight forward and non-complicated. Anything too complicated should be referred to the ED.
