Aims
• To learn one safe way to do a surgical
procedure.
• It is not the only method of performing a
surgical procedure, but we endeavour to teach
one safe way
• The course should be not only instructive and
educational but also enjoyable
• Acquire good habits earlier – it is difficult to
unlearn bad habits

Scrubbing
• Follow hospital policy
• Use elbow to adjust water and collect antiseptic
solution
• Avoid splashing water
• Do not mix two solutions
• Duration of contact and not how hard you scrub
• Take 5 to 10 ml of solution
• Wash from hands towards elbow
• Must not come back to wash part again
• 2 minutes above elbow,1 minute below elbow and 2
minutes above wrist
• Keep hands up
• Rinse by rotation of forearms
• Nail brush only for nails and
hand creases
• Closed technique
• Rarely open
• Half size larger underneath for double gloving
• Always clean to clean if walking in theatre, dirty
to dirty
• Hands folded between nipple and umbilicus
Removing the gown
(St Andrew’s cross)
• “Dirty to dirty”
• Pinch the outside of one glove with the other gloved
hand
• Remove the glove and grasp it in the palm of the
gloved hand
• Put one finger of the ungloved hand under the cuff of
the glove and remove it so that only the interior of the
glove can be seen, with the other glove inside
Walking in the theatre
• Clean to clean- Front to front
• Dirty to dirty- Back to back

Knot Tying
Knots
• Knot-tying is a fundamental technique in
surgery, and is often performed badly
• Uses of knots:
− Tying sutures
− Ligation (tying vessels)
General Principles of Knot-Tying
• Firm and unable to slip
• Small, to minimise foreign material and
foreign body reaction
• Don’t ‘saw’ the material – it will weaken the
thread
• Don’t damage it by grasping with instruments
except at the free end
General Principles of Knot-Tying
• Avoid excessive tension
• Avoid tearing tissue
• Apply tension horizontally
Secure knot
Standard ≥ 3 throw for
knot tying multifilaments
≥ 6 throws for
monofilaments

SUTURING
Types of Suture Material
Sutures:
Absorbable Non-absorbable
Biological Synthetic
Monofilament Multifilament
(twisted, braided)
Types of Suture Material (cont.)
Needles:
Curved Eye
J-shaped Body
Straight Tip
Round Body
Taper - blunt
- cutting (forward /reverse)
Handling Sutures
• Tension – attempt to remove all elements of
tension from any anastomosis
• Insert needle at right angles to the tissue and
gently advance through the tissue, avoiding
shearing forces
• As a rough rule of thumb, the distance from the
edge of the wound should correspond to the
thickness of the tissue
• Successive sutures should be placed at twice
this distance apart, i.e. double the depth of
tissue sutured.
Types of Suture
1. Interrupted suture
2. Interrupted mattress suture
• Vertical – used to evert the edges of a wound
• Horizontal – used mainly to control bleeding from
wound edge (useful for, e.g., suturing the scalp)
3. Continuous sutures.
4. Subcuticular sutures – commonly used to seal a
wound. One can use absorbable or non-absorbable
material. When absorbable material is used the knot
lies inside the tissue; when non-absorbable material is
used the knot lies outside.
Handling Sutures (cont.)
• All sutures should be placed at right angles to
the line of the wound at the same distance from
wound edge and same distance apart in order
for tension to be equal down the wound length
wound
edge parallel, same distance
apart, same distance
from edge
