Suturing during surgical internship
Suturing during surgical internship
“Interns are still perfecting their suturing and knot-tying technique.”
“I didn’t get “good” at suturing until 2nd year of ENT residency, i.e. meaning that I was reasonably quick and had decent technique. The key is learning good technique first and then work on your speed once you have the technique down. If you can sew fast with crappy technique, you’re not doing yourself or the patient a favor.”
