چکیده
However, should it really happen, the patient need not even be taken to the operating room, as through-and-through silk sutures can be inserted under novocain infiltration anaesthesia while she is still in the ward. After the skin edges are infiltrated the sutures are carefully inserted, but not tied until they have all been placed. Then with the patient encouraged to relax and breathe easily, the sutuites are tied starting from both ends of the incision and progressing toward the centre, the last suture being tied in the middle of the wound. Wound infection: After the first seventy-two hours the dressing is changed for the first time. By then signs of local irritation usually disappear, but if wound infection is starting a conspicuous red area encircles each suture. The guilty stitches should be removed and sulfanilamide powder sprinkled over their site. After the incision has been covered heat should be applied. If serum accumulates and becomes noticeable after the sutures and woind clips have been removed, it should be aspirated with a large-size needle, attached to a glass syringe.
