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


prolene
Subject: prolene

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
