Is there a preferred way to type all the sutures?  Like would you type #0 PDS or just 0 PDS and then what about 4-0 Dexon, would it be #4-0?


Thanks

I work for a hospital so all docs are different. One always says "number four O", etc. Some just say "four O" I have always went with the 4-0 without the # sign before it. Others use the # sign so I was wondering if I was wrong or if it was just a preference. Thanks

If 0 prolene is at beginning of sentence, would 0 be spelled out to avoid starting sentence with a number?

change context or meaning of sentence at all, just grammatically correct; but as always it is good to check with your own QA, some companies have their own weird little rules whey want to go by.....been doing mostly OPs for years, so hope I can help!

A 4 x 6 inch piece of Prolene mesh was introduced into the preperitoneal space. This was wrapped around the cord structures in a McKerne
