2. Surgical suture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgical_suture

   Modern sutures range from #5 (heavy braided suture for orthopedics) to #11-0 (fine monofilament suture for ophthalmics). Atraumatic needles are manufactured in all shapes for most sizes. The actual diameter of thread for a given U.S.P. size differs depending on the suture material class.

   A synthetic adsorbable suture material. Braided synthetic adsorbable multifilament made of polyglycolic acid and coated with N-laurin and L-lysine, which render the thread extremely smooth, soft and knot safe. A synthetic adsorbable suture material. Monofilament synthetic absorbable suture, prepared from the polyester, poly (p-dioxanone ...

4. French catheter scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_catheter_scale

   The French scale measures the outer diameter of the catheter, not the size of the internal drainage channel (inner diameter). For instance, a two-way catheter of 20 Fr and a three-way catheter of 20 Fr have the same outer diameter, but the three-way catheter has an additional channel for irrigation, reducing the size of its drainage channel.

   The Birmingham gauge ranges from 5/0 or 00000, the lowest gauge number corresponding to the largest size of 0.500 inches (12.7 mm), to 36, the highest gauge number corresponding to the smallest size of 0.004 inches (0.10 mm). The increments between gauge sizes are not linear and vary. [2]

9. Organ flue pipe scaling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_flue_pipe_scaling

   Relationship between number of feet, octave and size of an open flue pipe (1′ = 1 foot = about 32 cm) Play ⓘ Scaling is the ratio of an organ pipe's diameter to its length. The scaling of a pipe is a major influence on its timbre. Reed pipes are scaled according to different formulas than for flue pipes.
