Mr. Sowers, thank you for every single lecture you have posted for ST's. Today, with your help, on my 1st attempt, I passed my exam. I've graduated as a CST. Thank you so much! I couldn't have done it without your lectures and detailed illustrations. Thank you!
I didn't find the program hard, but the amount you need to know/memorize seems very overwhelming. To help me study and pass the exam I am looking into a position at my local hospital for an un-certified tech to get me some hands on experience. I hope I can pass on my first try too. These videos however have helped me sooo much @@tdixon97
I'm a new CP tech, and got tossed into the deep end, just baskets and baskets of mystery surgical instruments with the item numbers worn away with time. This video has helped a ton, thank you.
Thank you very much!! I was wishing to find something like this!!! so clear and calm and professionally explained and to the point- edited to the max! I have a “test “ at work tomorrow and this was the info I really needed!!!!
I recall having watched a great surgery professor who was astoundingly skillful. He employed his own instrument tech. She was so familiar with even very complex operations that he only held out his hand to have exactly the right instrument passed from one of the several open trays. He knew that talking at the table increases the risk of pt. infection, as does anything other than delicate tissue manipulation.
starting school come April and wanted to start getting myself familiar with the instruments ,thank you so much for taking the time to do this video as it was very helpful, I will be using this video throughout my time in school.
wonderful video! supplementing my SPD training with a splash of surgical tech info to better understand my customers, this was highly informative! thanks!
I’m thinking about making Surgical Tech my career goal but I’m so happy I found your page to teach me while I debate on going back to school before paying my student loan lol can’t wait to start my journey.
You are so clear at describing all instruments, great information video on surgical basic tools. Wish it was bit longer video and if could use a dummy to show how some of the tools are actually used on tissues would have been great . Awesome job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hiii So today I passed my NCCT exam here in California. Omg it was so hard. Just wanted to say thank you for all the content you put out & actually taking the time to respond to questions and such it really helped a lot!
For surgical instrument learning starts from here. The best lecture available on RUclips for beginners with mindful PowerPoint for the students. Thank you so much, sir.
I am a M.A., P.N. I enjoyed your video immensely. I've assisted doctors in minor surgeries, and loved my job, so fascinating, and I like to keep learning. Thank you very much! By the way, would you please show a rib spreader?
Hello, thankyou for the crystal clear and excellent video demonstration. I would like to ask about the electric cauterization, when do we use such monopolar and bipolar cauterization? Thank you
Are there left-handed scissors for surgeons that are left-handed? If you use right-handed scissors in your left hand the blades tend to spread apart and not cut well.
plastic resins and poly based utensils for human interface non-static does not conduct electricity, does not manipulate the iron structure based around oxidized blood or an open orfice
i have used misquito & larger than mosquito clamps , small forcep , needle holders & reound end scissors & scalpel , while doing minor to moderate surgries # but haven't used blood vessels electrocautery # 👍🇵🇰
Hello I am brand new to this channel and considering the Surgical Tech field. Does anyone happen to know which programs are accredited in NYC? I google it and so many colleges and programs come up but I’m not sure how to check which ones are accredited in 2024. Also does anyone recommend going the college route vs a tech program? Any information is greatly appreciated! Thank you
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How can one remember all the different instruments they're so many!!! Jeez, is all of these instruments on the exam to be certified?
Ha! I TOTALLY understand. I felt exactly the same way when I went through my Surgical Technology program. What made it worse was when I learned that the instruments covered in this video, was just Chapter 1!!!! And there were 14 other chapters, each just as big, covering all the specialty instruments. In all I had to learn over 300 instruments. And my students in the Associates degree program will have to learn over 400. Are they all going to be on the National Board exam? No. But several will be, and we don't know which ones those are.
I always recommend CAAHEP and ABHES accredited programs. You can find a list of nearby CAAHEP programs here: www.caahep.org/students/find-an-accredited-program
Sir i have one question I am valid for CST exam if i have surgical technician degree from Indian university which is approved by UGC,AIU and ACU . Sir please reply Thank you
To be allowed to take the National Board Exam (the one that earns you the CST title) you must graduate from a CAAHEP or ABHES-accredited college. And those are only located in the USA. However you may be able to take the NCCT exam, which would earn you the TS-C certification.

Watching this for fun 😊
Love the video
I’m surprised you didn’t have Richardson, Deever or Harrington in the retractors, those a pretty common in general surgery.
I remember Dr. Deaver. Note spelling.
Do you recommend doing surgical tech programs online?
Very well done! Thank you! Dr.Tim Rasico M.D. Ph.D
"Dr." is a redundancy.
Thanks man 🤝
nice thank you
Do you have a video over pediatric surgery?? Its my last chapter test and need help!
That's a good idea, but, no, I don't have one. There isn't a pediatrics chapter in the book I was working from.

www.caahep.org/students/find-an-accredited-program Select Surgical Technology as the "Profession" and type "New York" in the search bar.
I completed my bsc nursing please tell me,, ward work bettere or Operation theatre bettere
In the 70's , those were "roach clips" 😊
The biggest pair of "hemos" we smoked with we called the "Hugemostats".
Do you have a supply video that I'm over looking?
I don't currently, but I may make one in the future. Thank you for the suggestion.

@@SurgicalCounts And you have to learn only the names used in the English-speaking world.
where is your office ???
I think you misspelled Dr. Halsted's name.
Respected sir
Which is the best college in New York Washington for surgical technology program???
I always recommend CAAHEP and ABHES accredited programs. You can find a list of nearby CAAHEP programs here: www.caahep.org/students/find-an-accredited-program

Why cut it though?
Sir i have one question
I am valid for CST exam if i have surgical technician degree from Indian university which is approved by UGC,AIU and ACU .
