Silicone Suture Pad
I mentioned this silicone suture pad because it’s such an easy way to keep your hands from getting rusty when you haven’t sutured in a while (which was literally me — last time I sutured was before Christmas). When you only have a short window before lab, being able to run through simple interrupted, simple continuous, cruciate, and knot burying at home is so helpful.
