Overview
What you will study
Closing and stabilising wounds satisfactorily is the key to predictable surgical outcomes. Its importance in achieving consistent predictable results is often underestimated. Nearly all surgical procedures require the use of sutures. Whilst simple at its core, achieving good results is unlikely when performed poorly. The instruments that we choose to use, the materials we select and the techniques we employ can have a significant impact on the efficiency and results of treatment. This Suturing - Improving Clinical Outcomes in Practice course offered by University of Melbourne will discuss that.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- Why we suture - flap design, wound stability and its' effect on clinical outcome
- Suture material and types and their appropriate selection
- Hands-on suture techniques in respect to various extraction socket scenarios, coronally advancing flap for closure of OACs, apically repositioning flaps, biopsy closures, implant closures, soft tissue augmentation and frenectomy
- Have a greater understanding of the suturing and its effect on the clinical outcome
- Identify the type of sutures available and their appropriate selection
- Use of various suturing techniques for a variety of clinical situations
