What Is the Paraffin Gauze Compress Used For?
A paraffin gauze compress is laid directly on the wound as the contact layer. The soft paraffin coating keeps the dressing from sticking to the wound bed, and the large mesh lets exudate or pus pass through to an absorbent layer above, which is why the listing highlights its use on burns.
The listing describes the dressing as cicatrising and warns against using it with local antibiotics, as this may lead to the development of resistant strains. A dry gauze compress and a bandage are normally placed over it to absorb fluid and hold it in position. Burn units and clinics that buy through a lab equipment distributor in India can order it by the box of 10.
