Subject: Ŗ-0" is a very common suture size ... /sm

Vicryl sutures are used for a lot of surgeries, and size is measured by "0" -- I used to have a surgeon always said "double-ott" sutures -- meaning "OO" or "2-0"

If they are using more than one strand of suture material, I have heard surgeons say "double stranded" before, but not "dual stranded.

Have a good day.
