How to Suture Like a Surgeon: Subcuticular Suturing

[@lefraijo88]

I have that same suture pad and I was having the hardest time practicing running subcuticular. Glad to see I’m not the only one lol

[@Hjemmevet]

As a vet I live these videos to help me in my practice

[@jerryyoung3790]

Dr. Parker's techniques are super understandable and appreciated..Thanks Dr.

[@TheShakhan91]

[@_jensoohoee6905]

i have been watching grey's anatomy and now im here interested in suturing even tho im not taking med school i will never know this might be helpful in the future..

[@meriemcullen8510]

very wise of you bravo !

[@gilliann.9579]

See if you can get good enough to suture grape skin lol

[@lanilau4387]

Dr Parker, you’re awesome.

[@KateRVN]

That’s great! Thanks Doc! Just a question regarding these suture patterns: how can I avoid creating “mountains” at either end of the suture line?

[@DrAdnan]

These videos are so helpful!

[@antoniosousa8750]

I haven't got why you haven't tied a knot at the end of suture. Could you explain it? Thank you, Dr Parker. Great video!

[@zoraackerman1684]

Isn't it so it doesn't fet undone like regular sewing? IDK, I haven't even watched the video till the end.

[@csengelaczko6501]

Will you make more car videos in the future? We miss them :D

[@dida145]

Hi, I learned a lot from your videos! Thank you! I’d love to have this kit! But I live in Austria, is there anyway I could still get a hold of one?

[@docsrini123]

Get a chicken piece with skin and practice on it . No need to spend on any kits

[@kavemanisabeachbum]

Great video, thanks for explaining everything so well! Also, sweet Panerai, totally jealous.

[@lethabrooks9112]

This made me stare at the Surgical Scars on my left shoulder!

[@kimberlyanderson5773]

Is there an option to watch this in person?

[@guimsabreu]

thanks for the videos, you're awesome, greetings from Portugal

[@rower2169]

In the video you say "All Done", but the 'wound' is still a good 0.5mm-0.25mm open. Is this a problem with the silicone material, or is there some technique of tightening the sutures that we skipped? Is there something you would have done differently in this demonstration to close that up better? I don't feel confident when I practice and the wound isn't closed at the end and want to get it right. Thanks!

[@N0body247]

thats because its UNDER the skin. you can use a wound closure to seal the skin together. it depends on the type of laceration and if there is muscle involved that needs to be sutured as well,. There is no 1 way to close any type of wound. it all depends on the situation and where the laceration is on the body. what you think you want to do is "seal" the skin opening., But sometimes you need to PULL the 2 pieces CLOSER so you can seal it. In large lacerations this is done by using stiches UNDER the skin it pulls them closer and THEN you can "seal" the wound with other sutures ,staples etc.

[@berrtusmaximus5212]

You also don’t want to suture so tight that you cut off blood flow. There should be a small gap.

[@emilyrose0416]

I was wondering if you could do one of the x looking cuts? they confuse me.

[@happenstancially4132]

As someone that isn’t in the medical field, this is extremely helpful to know for catastrophic circumstances. For clarity, I don’t plan to need this info, but it’s good to know.

[@mikehenthorn1778]

and practice the skills. i have had to do this on the farm to large animals.

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

Actually subcuticular stitches are the last you'd ever want in those situations. They take too long, not very secure. They're mostly used in places that have low tension and in areas where you want minimal scarring.

[@melosaurrn]

Very helpful video, thank you! So do you only tie 1-2 knots when doing a buried suture?

[@drbuckparker]

U need less because it’s polyfilament. But still 3-4

[@TastyPog]

Wait.. when you go backwards doesn't the suture get entangled ?

[@drbuckparker]

yes. that's the point. so you don't have to tie it:)

[@user-tr2dh4xx6u]

Did you have the audio off?

[@evonsmith3029]

What can a senior in school do to prepare to be a surgeon?

[@N0body247]

Take more science courses.. ie anatomy chemistry etc. Your going to need it in med school.

[@thewakabaccapodcast1378]

Do surgeons get paid biweekly or semimonthly or monthly?

[@drbuckparker]

i get paid monthly

[@fayedk73]

Your best video 😍 Thanks dr Buck 😍

[@philosophy_paradoxrealityk3619]

Is there a better suture pad that is close to reacting as if it was real skin?

[@meriemcullen8510]

practise on actual real patient while theyre sleeping under drugs lol

[@chaitanyabujji9101]

Here plastic surgeon did stitches went wrong so I visit so many hospital no one responding probably because they telling something something

[@ASHISHKUMARDPSG]

Did the stitch on your lips zip up?

[@yasarali726]

[@drbuckparker]

bonjour

[@ourochroma]

I hate needles so much

[@renatabarbora5131]

Why didn’t you square knot your first suture? I want to show these videos to our students but I always tell them “first pull towards you, then away from you, then towards and away” and this video is showing all towards you 😞 Love you videos though!

[@drbuckparker]

For me i can apply a more precise amount of tightness (or looseness) to the knot and keep it that way.

[@chaitanyabujji9101]

Hey sir I’m from Indian I need one help actually i got operation six months back
