Straight Mayo for Suture
Captions available
The idea
Straight Mayo scissors are the scissors used for cutting suture, which is why they are sometimes called suture scissors.
In practice
They also cut other non-tissue items on the field, such as mesh, drains and dressings, sparing the finer scissors.
Where people slip
Expect to pass them every time a tie or stitch is completed and needs cutting.
