What is a "suture"?
A suture refers to each of the multiple loops or knots used to close and secure the edges of a wound or surgical cut. These loops, often referred to as stitches, are typically made with a material similar to thread and are placed by healthcare professionals to bring together the tissues, encouraging healing and reducing the risk of infection. Sutures are a critical part of surgical procedures and wound management, providing support until the tissue heals properly on its own.
Example
The surgeon skillfully applied a suture to close the incision after the successful appendectomy.
The emergency room physician used dissolvable sutures to close the laceration on the patient's forearm.
Following the dental procedure, the oral surgeon used a suture to close the gum tissue around the extracted tooth.
