    Let me preface by saying that I have significant experience in wound closure. That said, I often find myself in places and countries with no immediate medical care available. I do have a basic set of pills, potions, and bandages. Tourniquets are relatively easy to construct. But what about closing a clean open wound? Butterfly bandages and dermabond wound only work on a small laceration. Does any one carry a needle with a suture in their medical kit?
