surgical knot

A surgical knot is a specialized knot used by doctors to securely close wounds or connect tissues during surgery. It’s designed to hold firm, preventing stitches from slipping or coming undone, ensuring proper healing. These knots are typically tied with surgical thread or suture material, and their strength relies on careful technique. Different types of surgical knots, like the square knot, provide durability and security. Properly tied surgical knots are essential for healing, minimizing infection risk, and ensuring that tissues stay together as they recover.
