Suturing comes down to understand how the needles works. The only element of stitching that is fixed as the alignment of the needle to the tissues - that must be a vectors of ninety degrees across what you want to stitch especially if the surgeon is thinking of passing the needle through two layer. This determines the position of the upper arm and the shoulder girdle both of which will be influenced how you stand. Join BBASS as we describe and practice the nuances of stitching allowing you to feel in control of the needle. The ergonomics of suturing will be demonstrated using low fidelity models.

Summary

Discover the fascinating world of angles, alignment and vectors in this comprehensive teaching session designed specifically for medical professionals. Learn how these mathematical concepts are inherently related to suturing - from understanding the tissue to complex human anatomy, set up is critical. Your participation will enhance your practical skills, provide a deeper understanding of suturing and could even revolutionize your surgical practice. Don't miss this extraordinary chance to add a new dimension to your professional knowledge.

Learning objectives

To understand the basic concepts of angles, alignment, and vectors in the context of suturing.
To apply the principles of angles, alignment, and vectors to comprehend the biomechanics involved in human movements and postures.
To implement the concept of vectors to understand the direction and magnitude of forces acting on different parts of the human body.
To recognize the importance of these concepts in 'homing' suturing skills on low fidelity models.
