Hello I am a M3 who got clinicals delayed from COVID. I am considering surgery and was thinking I could practice/learn some suturing while I’m home for these extra few weeks but I’m unsure about what I should do for materials especially since I’ve never been in an OR and seen a surgery
I’ve seen a few threads with people saying to ask for extra materials from hospitals but I haven’t started rotations so that’s out. So far my vague idea is to buy a needle driver and some suture threads/needles from Amazon and practice on banana skins.
Would this work or is there a better way to go about this? Are there any specific products and suture videos people recommend?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated thank you!
