Basic suturing is an essential psychomotor skill in the everyday practice of medicine. Although suturing technique is important, the physician must also have a thorough understanding of wound management in general to effectively care for a patient with a laceration. Students should watch the basic suturing instructional video and complete the embedded multiple-choice questions prior to the course. Students will then on their own practice using a model of their choice (students can choose fresh chicken breast/lamb leg/old pillow case) & a package of sutures+instruments provided by the university (student pickup/posted to students prior to course).

Brief description of experiences / presentation submitted:

During MCO time, there was a difficulty to teach the students especially this module, which is clinical module and it needs hands-on training on patients and mannequins. However we tried the best we can by continuing online teaching sessions with students via google meet, zoom. As we need the patients for the students to take history from, I put myself as the patient. Therefore bed side clinical teaching at hospital became online teaching with the lecturer who acted as role player and lecturer. We found this method has better benefits in some extents. For theory teaching, we continue online powerpoint submissions in smart2ums for small group discussion, lectures, assessments. For Clinical Skill Lab training, I posted video in the smart2ums so students learn the procedures from the videos. However students manage to do hands-on training after they come back to UMS after MCO period.
