Practice Suture Kit by ARTAGIA MED

1. Various Ways to Practice Suture Techniques Repetition has been called the mother of learning and when it comes to suture practice, this is certainly true. The medical stiches kit may provide the tools needed, but without extensive and repeated practice they may remain in the kit. In the past, budding surgeons have used every manner of flesh to practice, from bananas to raw chicken to pig’s feet. Really, any of these will do and do well, for each can mimic human flesh in both the look and feel needed to understand how skin will move while suturing. Of course, maintaining ready access to poultry or pork may not always be possible, especially in Liberal Arts classrooms. Not ripping on Liberal Arts…we’ve all benefited from the classes…but the classrooms are not equipped to store fresh meat like many of the medical training and life sciences rooms. For good reason then, most med students prefer the next method. Practicing Sutures with a Silicone Pad Silicone has radically altered human progress in more ways that can be written in a single book, but one of the best ways it has advanced the cause of medicine has been with the simple suture practice pad. Made to look and feel like human skin, on the surface, all suture pads look pretty much alike. But, just as with people, the beauty at times is only skin deep.
