Suture Training Workshop II

Dear students,

With the successful organisation of the 1st suture training workshop in April, IMU Surgical Society is organising another Suture Training Workshop for students:

The activities during both sessions would be:-
1. Introduction to various suture materials
2. Guided hands-on training session for knotting (ie: Surgeons knot, Reef knot - one handed and two handed method)
3. Guided hands-on training session for suturing techniques (ie: simple interrupted, continuous, mattress suturing)

Since we can only accommodate 20 students per workshop, we are organising 2 sessions this time. Students are welcomed to join either one of the sessions. IT'S ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!
So, hurry up!!!! Sign up by writing your name at our noticeboard (outside SR 5). First come first serve basis.

Suture Training Workshop 1

Our very first Suture Training Workshop had just passed ! The event was held in SR 10  at 5.00pm until 7.00pm . The event was opened to 20 members . The participants consisted of members from Semester 6 , Semester 7 and Semester 9 . 

During the Suture Training Workshop , each participants were provided a piece of chicken skin , and a set of surgical instruments. We focused on the basic suture techniques in this session as it is the most fundamental skills we needed to master. 

Participants  filled up SR10 .

Everybody was excited and eager to learn the suture & knotting techniques . 

Committee members helped participants settle down and ensured everyone had a complete set of materials before the workshop started . 

A video was played . Participants learnt and revised their techniques through the video .

After the video was played , participants tried the 2 hands and 1 hand technique of knotting. 

Committee members provide one-on-one guidance to participants.
