parnemt Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I recommend searching eBay for suture. There are sites that sell expired suture, but they are still pretty pricey (around 2.50 per suture). I just ordered expired 12 expired 3-0 eth vicryl for $15 on eBay.

cinntsp Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Buy one of these suture pads: http://shop.surgireal.com/collections/all They start at $20 and go up from there. My program gave us the $40 ones and they're great. You can get bulk suture here: http://sim-vivo.com/bulk-suture.html $20 for 60 3-0 nylon or $20 for 50 2-0 silk are good deals.That site also has other neat products you may be interested in like the knot tying kit, though you may be able to get one of those for free from Ethicon if they have any available. They're always first come, first serve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
