The USP (United States Pharmacopeia) sizing system denotes suture diameter. The system is centered around the size '0'. Sizes with increasing positive numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3) are progressively thicker. Sizes denoted with a number followed by a '-0' (e.g., 2-0, 3-0, 5-0) are progressively thinner as the leading number increases. Therefore, a 5-0 suture is much thinner than a 2-0 suture, and a size 1 suture is thicker than a size 2-0 suture [cite: 80, 81, 193-201].
