Yesterday was the first time I got to do a suture on a real patient in the OT. It was a great feeling. While I had been hoping to be given the chance to do it, it came a little unexpected as I thought my prof had forgotten about his promise to let me stitch a patient before I leave for my next rotation.
Even though I did not do much suturing, only 1 stitch, it was still great cos at least I got to do something. Considering I had only practised on fake arms etc, it was nice of them to let me do one stitch under supervision. Haha. Hope I will get to do stitching again next time, and nicer stitches as well. =)
