Suturing is used to close skin lacerations through the dermis. The basic steps for wound closure are hemostasis, local anesthesia, cleansing, creating a sterile field, choosing a closure method, and covering the wound. Suture selection depends on the location and depth of the wound. Common suture techniques include simple interrupted, horizontal mattress, two-step stitch, and vertical mattress sutures. Suture materials come in dissolving or non-dissolving varieties and different sizes are used for specific body areas.
Sutures and suturing are used to approximate wound edges and promote healing. The goals of suturing include wound closure with adequate tension to prevent dead space but not cause ischemia, maintain hemostasis, permit primary intention healing, reduce pain, and provide support until tissue has healed. An ideal suture material is easy to use, has good knot security, causes minimal tissue reaction, resists bacteria, is strong but small, and affordable. Suture materials are categorized as absorbable or non-absorbable, natural or synthetic, and monofilament or multifilament. Common suture techniques include simple interrupted stitches, mattress stitches, and subcuticular stitches.

Procedure for suturing wounds or hecting actions - a brief medical study martinshaji
Wound closure techniques have evolved from the earliest development of suturing materials to comprise resources that include synthetic sutures, absorbables, staples, tapes, and adhesive compounds. The engineering of sutures in synthetic material along with standardization of traditional materials (eg, catgut, silk) has made for superior aesthetic results. Similarly, the creation of topical skin adhesives (the monomer 2-octyl cyanoacrylate), surgical staples, and tapes to substitute for sutures has supplemented the armamentarium of wound closure techniques. Aesthetic closure of a wound, whether traumatic or surgically induced, is based on knowledge of healing mechanisms and skin anatomy (see the image below), as well as an appreciation of suture material and closure technique. Choosing the proper materials and wound closure technique ensures optimal healing.

1. A patient will often step on a needle while running or sliding barefoot, feeling a foreign body sensation with weight bearing. X-rays should be taken with a paper clip skin marker in place to locate the needle.
2. To remove the needle, the area should be cleaned, anesthetized, and an incision made perpendicular to the needle midpoint. Gently spreading the incision with iris scissors can help locate and grasp the needle to push it out the entry direction.
3. Locating and removing a buried needle can be difficult, so physicians should set a time limit and avoid extensive dissection that could harm the patient. Gentle exploration with iris scissors provides relative safety.
Bandages are used to cover wounds and injured body parts. They serve several purposes, including preventing contamination, providing support, immobilizing fractures, and maintaining pressure. When applying a bandage, one should support the injured area, pad bony areas, and wrap neither too tightly nor too loosely. Bandages must be checked daily for signs of infection or improper tightness and changed regularly. Different types of bandages are used depending on the body part and specific needs.
The document provides instructions for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and treating choking emergencies. It also discusses oral surgery procedures like suturing techniques and managing impacted teeth.

Grade 9- Health, Lesson 3: Bandaging and Dressing .pptxLykaNavarroGeneral
Dressings and bandages are used to cover wounds and prevent infection. Dressings cover wounds directly while bandages secure dressings in place and provide support. There are different types of bandages for different purposes and wounds in different locations require different bandaging techniques. Common wounds include abrasions, lacerations, punctures, and avulsions. Managing wounds involves stopping bleeding, cleaning the wound, applying a sterile dressing, elevating the wound if possible, and seeking medical help for severe wounds.
This document provides instructions for surgical scrubbing, gowning, and gloving before entering an operating room. It describes a two-phase process for scrubbing hands and forearms with soap and water followed by rubbing with a disinfectant for 5 minutes. It details how to properly put on and tie a surgical gown with assistance and how to don sterile gloves, starting with the left hand first, while being assisted by a scrub nurse. The goal is to reduce bacteria on the skin and provide a sterile surgical field.
Bandages are used to cover cuts and stop bacteria from entering. They help the body repair the skin. Bandages should be applied with pressure to stop bleeding. If the cut is small, wash it first before applying the bandage. For serious cuts, call for emergency help after applying the bandage. Slings are used to immobilize broken arms until proper medical bracing by keeping the arm still and preventing further damage. They are meant to help relax the injured area but not replace seeing a doctor.
The document discusses surgical sutures and needles. It covers their properties, types, uses and techniques for placement and removal. Some key points include:
1) Sutures must be pliable, sterilized, non-reactive and have adequate tensile strength for wound healing. Absorbable sutures like Vicryl degrade over time while non-absorbables like nylon are permanent.
2) Needles come in different shapes, sizes and points for various tissue types. They have an eye, body and point.
3) Common suture techniques include simple interrupted, continuous, mattress and subcuticular closure. Knot security requires at least 4 throws.
4)
This document discusses dental suturing materials and techniques. It begins by outlining the objectives and requisites of suture materials, such as high tensile strength, sterility, and biocompatibility.

External cephalic version (ECV) is a procedure used to manually turn a fetus from a breech position to a head-down position in utero. ECV is generally performed after 36 weeks of gestation with tocolysis to reduce risks. It can successfully turn 44-57% of breech fetuses, reducing the need for cesarean section. Risks of ECV include brief fetal bradycardia in 8% of cases and 5% risk of fetomaternal hemorrhage. However, meta-analyses show ECV significantly reduces breech birth, cesarean rates, and risks to the fetus and mother when compared to breech vaginal delivery or planned cesarean. ECV
An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg implants outside of the uterus, most commonly in the fallopian tubes. It is becoming more common, with a 1 in 100 incidence of deliveries in India. Risk factors include pelvic inflammatory disease and previous tubal/pelvic surgeries. Ultrasound and beta-hCG levels can help diagnose ectopic pregnancies early before rupture. Treatment options include medical management with methotrexate or surgical intervention like salpingostomy to remove the ectopic pregnancy laparoscopically or laparotomically. The goal is to preserve future fertility when possible.

Suturing Techniques :
When suturing the edges of a wound together, it is important to evert the skin edges that is, to get
the underlying dermis from both sides of the wound to touch. For the wound to heal, the dermal
elements must meet and heal together. If the edges are inverted (the epidermis turns in and
touches the epidermis of the other side), the wound will not heal as quickly or as well as you
would like. The suture technique that you choose is important to achieve optimal wound healing.
Instruments Needed
Needle holder: used to grab onto the suture needle
Forceps: used to hold the tissues gently and to grab the needle
Suture scissors: used to cut the stitch from the rest of the suture material
How to Hold the Instruments
Whenever you use sharp instruments, you face the risk of accidentally sticking yourself.
Needle sticks are especially hazardous because of the risk of serious infection (hepatitis,
human immunodeficiency virus).
To prevent needle sticks, get in the habit of using the instruments correctly.
Never handle the suture needle with your fingers.
Scissors:
Place your thumb and ring finger in the holes. It is best to cut with the tips of the scissors so
that you do not accidentally injure any surrounding structures or tissue (which may happen if
you cut with the center part of the scissors).
Needle Holder:
Place your thumb and ring finger in the holes. When using the needle holder, be sure to grab
the needle until you hear the clasp engage, ensuring that the needle is securely held.
You grab the needle at its half-way point, with the tip pointing upward. Try not to grab the
tip; it will become blunt if grabbed by the needle holder. Then it will be difficult to pass the tip
through the skin.
Left, Needle holder.
Center, Forceps with teeth.
Right, Suture scissors.
3. 3
Forceps:
Hold the forceps like a writing utensil. The forceps is used to support the skin edges when you
place the sutures. Be careful not to grab the skin too hard, or you will leave marks that can
lead to scarring.
Ideally, you should grab the dermis or subcutaneous tissue—not the skin—with
the forceps, but this technique takes practice. For suturing skin, try to use forceps
with teeth, which are little pointed edges at the end of the forceps.
The needle holder and scissors are handled similarly. For maximal control, place the tips of
your thumb and ring finger into the rings of the instrument.
Your thumb does most of the work to open and close the instrument.
The needle should be held in the jaws of the needle holder at its midpoint (where the curve of
the needle is relatively flat).
This technique prevents you from bending the needle as it passes through the tissues.
For most areas of the body, except the face the sutures should be placed in the skin 3–4 mm
from the wound edge and 5–10 mm apart.
Hold the forceps as you would hold a writing instrument. Sutures placed on the face should be
approximately 2–3 mm from the skin edge and 3–5 mm apart. Sutures placed elsewhere on
the body should be approximately 3–4 mm from the skin edge and 5–10 mm apart.
Start on the side of the wound opposite and farthest from you to ensure that you are always
sewing toward yourself. By sewing toward yourself, the suturing process is made easier from
a biomechanical standpoint.
Do not drive yourself crazy by placing too many sutures.
Simple Sutures
Indication:
This technique is the easiest to perform. It is used for most skin suturing.
Technique:
1. Start from the outside of the skin, go through the epidermis into the subcutaneous tissue from
one side, then enter the subcutaneous tissue on the opposite side, and come out the epidermis
above.
2. To evert the edges, the needle tip should enter at a 90° angle to the skin. Then turn your wrist
to get the needle through the tissues.
3. You can use simple sutures for a continuous or interrupted closure. The needle tip should enter
the tissues perpendicular to the skin. Once the needle tip has penetrated through the top
layers of the skin, twist your wrist so that the needle passes through the subcutaneous tissue
and then comes out into the wound. This technique helps to ensure that skin edges will evert.
Simple Sutures
Pull the suture through the skin so that just a short amount of suture material (a few
centimeters) is left out.
4. 4
Take the needle out of the needle holder.
Place your needle holder in the center between the skin edges parallel to the wound. One end
of the suture should be on each side of the wound without crossing in the middle.
Wrap the suture that is attached to the needle once or twice around the needle holder in a
clockwise direction.
Grab the short end of the suture with the needle holder.
Pull it through the loops, and have the knot lie flat. The short end of the stitch should now be
on the opposite side.
Let go of the short end.
Bring the needle holder back to the center, parallel to the wound edges.
Repeat steps 4–8 at least one or two times more.
Cut the suture ends about 1 cm from the knot.
Interrupted or Continuous Closure
Interrupted Sutures
Interrupted sutures are individually placed and tied.
They are the technique of choice if you are worried about the cleanliness of the wound.
If the wound looks like it is becoming infected, a few sutures can be removed easily without
disrupting the entire closure.
Interrupted sutures can be used in all areas but may take longer to place than a continuous
suture.
Continuous Closure
Place the sutures again and again without tying each individual suture.
If the wound is very clean and it is easy to bring the edges together, a continuous closure is
adequate and quicker to perform.
A continuous suture is done by passing the needle from side to side (across the wound)
multiple times before finally tying the suture.
Continuous closure is the technique of choice to help stop bleeding from the skin edges, which
is important, for example, in a scalp laceration.
Continuous Suture
1. Do not pull the next to-the-last stitch all the way through; leave it as a loop.
2. Place your needle holder between the loop and the suture attached to the needle. The needle
holder should be almost perpendicular to the wound.
3. Wrap the suture that is attached to the needle once or twice around the needle holder in a
clockwise direction.
4. Grab the loop with the needle holder.
5. Pull it through, and have the knot lie flat. The short loop should now be on the opposite side.
6. Let go of the loop.
7. Bring the needle holder back to the center between the loop and the suture end.
8. Repeat steps 3–7 at least one or two times more.
5. 5
9. Cut the suture ends about 1 cm from the knot.
Mattress Sutures
Indication:
Mattress sutures are a good choice when the skin edges are difficult to evert. Sometimes you
may want to close a wound with a few scattered mattress sutures and place simple sutures
between them.
It is a bit more technically challenging to place mattress sutures, but it is often worth the
effort because good dermis-to-dermis contact is achieved.
Mattress Sutures
Pull the suture through the skin so that just a short amount of suture material (a few
centimeters) is left out.
Take the needle out of the needle holder.
Both ends of the suture are on the same side. Place your needle holder between the ends of
the suture.
Wrap the suture that is attached to the needle once or twice around the needle holder in a
clockwise direction.
Grab the short end with the needle holder.
Pull it through the loops, and have the knot lie flat. The short end of the stitch should now be
on the opposite side.
Let go of the short end.
Technique
Start like a simple suture, go from the outside of the skin through the epidermis into the
subcutaneous tissue from one side, then enter the subcutaneous tissue on the opposite side,
and come out the epidermis above.
Turn the needle in the opposite direction and go from outside the skin on the side that you
just exited and come out the dermis below. Then enter the dermis on the opposite side and
come out of the epidermis above.
Your suture is now back on the side on which you started.
Buried Intra dermal Sutures
Indication:
This technique is useful for wide, gaping wounds and when it is difficult to evert the skin
edges. When buried intra dermal sutures are placed properly, they make skin closure much
easier.
The purpose of this stitch is to line up the dermis and thus enhance healing. The knot needs to
be as deep into the tissues as possible (hence the term buried) so that it does not come up
through the epidermis and cause irritation and pain.
Technique:
Use a cutting needle and absorbable material.
Start just under the dermal layer and come out below the epidermis. You are going from deep
to more superficial tissues. The vertical mattress suture.
6. 6
Now the technique becomes a bit challenging. You need to enter the skin on the opposite side
at a depth similar to where you exited the skin on the first side, just below the epidermis. To
do so, you should position the needle with the tip pointing down and promote your wrist to
get the correct angle.
It will help to use the forceps (in the other hand) to hold up the skin. The needle should come
out of the tissues below the dermis. Try to get as little fat in the stitch as possible; it does not
contribute to the suture.
Tie the suture.
Figure-of-eight Sutures
Indication :
This technique is useful for bringing together underlying tissues such as muscle, fascia, or
extensor tendons. It is not commonly used for skin closure.
Technique :
Usually a tapered needle and absorbable sutures are used.
Start on the side opposite from you. Go through the full thickness of tissues on that side, then
finish the first half of the stitch by going from bottom to top on the opposite side. Advance just
a little farther (1.0–1.5 cm) along the tissue. The needle should now be back on top of the
tissue.
Now enter the first side (going from top to bottom) just across from the suture on the other
side. Again go through the full thickness of the tissue and come out on the undersurface of the
tissue.
Now enter the undersurface of the other side even with the first suture and come out on top.
The suture can now be easily tied.
Tying the Suture:
The simplest way to tie the suture is by doing an “instrument tie,” described below.
Instrument tie.
Two loops of suture are wrapped around the distal portion of the needle holder, and the free
end of the suture is then grasped and pulled through the loop thus formed.
A third suture loop is wrapped around the needle holder in the opposite direction and pulled
in a direction opposite to the first tie to form a square knot. Note that the short end of the
suture switches sides as it is passed through the loop to create each knot.
Bring the needle holder back to the center, between the suture ends.
Repeat steps 4–8 at least one or two times more.
Cut the suture ends about 1 cm from the knot.
suture removal :
If the sutures are taken out within 7–10 days, suture removal is usually easy and should not cause
more than a pinching sensation to the patient.
7. 7
Simple Sutures
1. Cut the suture where it is exposed, crossing the wound edges.
2. Remove the entire stitch by grabbing the knot with a clamp or forceps and pulling gently.
Mattress Sutures
Removal of mattress sutures can be a little more difficult.
1. Grab the knot and try to lift it up a little; this should allow you to see a space between the
suture strands.
2. Cut one strand of the suture under the knot.
3. Remove the entire stitch by grabbing the knot with a clamp or forceps and pulling gently. This
suture will be a little harder to remove than a simple suture.
4. If you accidentally cut both ends of the suture, you will leave suture material behind.
5. Look on the opposite side of the skin for the suture. Grab it with a clamp or forceps, and gently
remove the remaining suture material.
Continuous Sutures
1. Cut the suture in several places where it is exposed, crossing the wound edges.
2. Remove portions of the stitch by grabbing an end with a clamp or forceps and pulling gently.
3. The sutures to the knot must be cut in several places for removal.
Other techniques of suturing:
Other techniques which can bring skin edges together to “suture” a wound closed without using
sutures. These techniques require more expensive equipment than regular suturing.
A. Skin Stapler
Indication:
The skin stapler is a medical device that places metal staples across the skin edges to bring the
skin together. The area must be anesthetized before placing the staples. The main advantage of
staples over sutures is that they can be placed quickly. Speed may be an important advantage
when you need to close a bleeding wound quickly (e.g., on the scalp) to decrease blood loss.
Staples tend to leave more noticeable marks in the skin compared with sutures. They should not
be used on the face.
Technique :
1. The edges must be everted. Usually an assistant must help by using forceps to hold the skin
edges so that the dermis on each side touches.
2. Place the center of the stapler (usually an arrow on the stapler marks the center) at the point
where the skin edges come together.
3. Gently touch the stapler to the skin; you do not have to push it into the skin. Then grasp the
handle to compress it; the compression releases the staple.
4. Release the handle, and move the stapler a few millimeters back to separate the staple from
the stapling device.
8. 8
5. The staples should be placed about 1 cm apart.
To Remove the Staples:
A staple remover device can be used to remove the staples easily. Put the jaws under the
staple, and close the device. This bends the staple and allows it to be removed.
If you do not have a staple remover, a clamp can be placed under the staple. Then open the
clamp to bend the staple so that it can be removed. Removing a staple in this fashion can be
painful.
B. Adhesives :
Specialized surgical adhesive materials allow the skin edges to be “glued” together. The
advantage of adhesives is that the wound does not need to be anesthetized for closure.
However, a traumatic wound must be thoroughly cleaned before closure, which often requires
local anesthetic. Thus, this advantage may be only theoretical.
Adhesive compounds are quite expensive, and the quality of the resultant scar has still not
been fully evaluated and compared with the scar
Close the skin with clips. The stapler should be centered over the skin edges before the staple
is released. Be sure that the skin is everted.
Thus only adhesive tapes are further discussed. Never use regular household adhesives to try
to close a wound.
Adhesive Tapes
Adhesive tapes often are placed after sutures are removed to help keep the skin closure from
separating. They also can be used as a means of cclosure for relatively small wounds whose edges
easily come together.
Removing a staple with a staple remover:
After thoroughly cleansing the wound, gently hold the skin edges together with your fingers
or a forceps. Cut the tape so that at least 2–3 cm are on each side of the skin edge once the
tape is in place.
Place tape strips one at a time, several millimeters apart. The tapes should be placed across
(perpendicular to) the long axis of the wound. Tapes stay in place for several days and should
be allowed to fall off on their own. The patient can wash the area but should do so gently.
