👆🏻when to remove non-absorbable suture, according to anatomy.

The term we usually use is STO ie suture/stitch to open 😇
.

So as HO, when you discharge any patient after surgery/procedure with non-absorbable sutures,

You need to let the patient know when to come to nearest clinic for STO,

and provide memo for patients for them to bring to clinic during the STO 👍🏻

Saya pernah jumpa patient during TCA 6 weeks post op di klinik pakar, tapi masih ada sutures dkt post op wound di abdomen😅
