suturing

Three things that I learned this week was the difference between continuous and non-contiguous suturing. The difference between these two is that continuous stitching is when you stitch without stoping and tying the stitch. While non-continuous is when you tie every stitch before starting the next one.
 Another thing I learned this week was the materials that you need in order to suture. These materials include a curved needle, needle holders, floss, and scissors. Without these materials you would not be able to suture.
Lastly another thing is the steps it takes to suture. These steps include shaving the area that is near the wound, making that the wound in cleaned off and so are the materials, next you use the curved needle and start to stitch the wound and thats when you decide if you want to do it continuously or non-continuously. These are the three amazing things I had learned through out the whole week.
