9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Now we are going to close the uterine incision

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The uterine incision, the first thing would be to identify the angle

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because that's where the most risk of bleeding occurs

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so we should be sure that we have identified and start our sutering from the angle of the uterine incision

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and we are going to use usually vciril or chromic cat gut can also be use

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the stitch is going to be continuous

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
suturing, after we grasp, make sure we have got the angle we'll go by doing continuous suturing

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and sometimes if we are doing, if we are having heavy bleeding, we can use locking sutures

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but if we feel the bleeding is controlled we don't have to lock the sutures

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
while the surgeon is doing this continuous suturing, the assistant's role is a big role here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
holding the uterus still, preferably by

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
using a pack

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and also holding the suture also

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
by following the surgeon and hold the suture tight

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and once we have done

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in this video, you'll see that the surgeon is going to close the uterine incision

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in one layer

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and now there are two schools of thoughts about the uterine closure

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
either it could be closed in one layer or two layers

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
some studies have shown that using one layer closure decreases operation time

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with still the same kind of results

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
still some would argue that the risk of bleeding and risk of future infection

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and disheasance would increase with one layer

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
both ways are acceptable

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but usually in our practice, in our set up what we practice is using two layer approach

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so we are finish putting suture with one layer, then we are repeat the same procedure and close uterine incision in two layers

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and nowadays, we have abundant closing peritonium, even after the

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this is because it heals by iteslf quickly

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and so by not closing it it decreases postoperative pain and so it is preferred to not close the xxx

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
once we are done with the closure of the uterine incision in two layers we have to make sure we don't have any bleeding

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
don't leave any bleaders

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
if there are any bleeding we have to do hemostatic sutures

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in those areas where we see bleeding

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we have to make sure we are controlled

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
all the bleeding sites

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you can see now there are two bleeders

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that the surgeon is going to control using hemostatic sutures

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So once we are sure the bleeding has been controlled, we don't have any other procedure like tubal ligation

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we'll just return the uterus to the abdominal cavity
