What Is the Sterile Gauze Compress Used For?
Gauze compresses are the everyday dressing material of wards and clinics: they are used to clean wounds, to apply disinfectant to healthy skin before a procedure and as a protective layer over a wound. Surgical folding tucks the cut edges inside, so no loose threads show after folding or when the first fold is opened.
With 12 folds, each 10 x 10 cm compress forms a thick, absorbent pad, and a pack of 5 keeps several sterile swabs together for one dressing procedure. Because this compress is non-detectable by X-ray, theatres that require X-ray-detectable swabs for counting should say so in their enquiry. Clinics that buy from one lab consumables supplier in India can order these compresses together with bandages and tape.
