Ah, Steve, time has passed?since your senior registrar days! Suture materials have changed.

When I do a midline incision in obese patients ( and that's not all the time!), I have used a mass closure using double-stranded #1 PDS with success.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
