Good observation. True. I am not squaring up the knot. Since it is a knot that is outside the body the only requirement is that it hold. When actually doing it in surgery on a nylon, I would usually throw about 6 knots and I always make sure the loop knot won't slide before I wrap it around the drain and tie it. If it were a subcuticular or a deep dermal stitch I would definitely square it. There are times in the body when a slip knot is thrown; tying under tension, frequently with deep tying and laparoscopic stitching. The important thing is to know when a slip knot is appropriate and to always make sure the knots are secure.
nice.. my consultant does the same.. and the loop really makes it so easy.. Thanks for sharing..
Nice
Granny knots
Well....I am a granny. lol
Why aren’t you alternating your hands when you tie your knots? Your knots for sure aren’t square if you’re only tying in one direction.
