If you grip your lines crossed before throwing your surgeons knot your hands wont do that awkward cross as you go to seat the knot... just a heads up

When is this technique used during surgery...i see that a lot of suture material is loose and would have to be cut...and that's not convenient, is it?

Thank you for the time and effort you put into this, but why not just use words?

Does it matter which side the needle went in?

Comments saying don't cross your hands (without understanding WHY your mentors told you not to). When you achieve mastery you can rewrite rule as you see fit.

I don’t think a surgeon should cross his/her hands, also i don’t think a patient cares if the surgeons “impress their peers”
