Everything you need for lac repairs

This guy thought of everything. This app has everything you need and nothing you don’t. It’s simple and easy to use. I love the note generation and that you can choose underscore or asterisks as I use both cerner and epic.

Great

Very helpful

Great Suturing App

Goes through techniques with videos, suture selection, antibiotic choices for special cases, works well as an app, and it’s free!!

The hits just keep on coming

Super useful tool for busy shifts in the ER that ensures you make the correct selections for laceration repairs. A great tool for physicians, NPs and PAs alike. Highly recommend!
