Covidien 8884431605 Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip Overwrap 5 x 9inch (x)

This 5 x 9-inch dressing is designed to provide optimal wound care through its unique combination of petrolatum, 3% bismuth tribromophenate, and fine mesh gauze. Ideal for various wound types, including burns, ulcers, and surgical sites, the Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip ensures a moist wound environment, protection against contamination, and enhanced patient comfort.

Moist Wound Healing: Moist wound healing is a well-established principle that promotes faster and more effective recovery. The Covidien Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip is impregnated with petrolatum, which helps to maintain a moist environment conducive to healing. This environment supports cell migration and collagen synthesis, accelerating the wound healing process. Additionally, the petrolatum barrier prevents the dressing from adhering to the wound, reducing pain and trauma during dressing changes.

Antimicrobial Protection: The Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip is enhanced with 3% bismuth tribromophenate, an antimicrobial agent that provides broad-spectrum protection against bacteria. This feature is particularly important for preventing wound infections, which can complicate the healing process and lead to more severe health issues. The antimicrobial properties of bismuth tribromophenate help to reduce the bacterial load in the wound, thereby minimizing the risk of infection and promoting a safer healing environment.

Gentle and Non-Adherent: One of the key benefits of the Covidien Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip is its gentle, non-adherent nature. The petrolatum coating ensures that the dressing does not stick to the wound bed, making dressing changes less painful and more comfortable for patients. This is especially beneficial for patients with sensitive skin or painful wounds, as it reduces the risk of further tissue damage and enhances patient compliance with wound care protocols.

Versatile Application: The 5 x 9-inch size of the Covidien Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip is ideal for a wide range of wound types and sizes. Whether used for burns, pressure ulcers, surgical incisions, skin grafts, or abrasions, this dressing provides reliable coverage and protection. Its flexibility allows it to conform to various wound shapes and contours, ensuring comprehensive wound coverage and optimal healing conditions.

Occlusive Properties for Enhanced Healing: The occlusive nature of the Xeroform Gauze Strip helps to protect the wound from external contaminants and fluid loss. By creating a sealed environment, the dressing prevents the entry of pathogens and debris, reducing the risk of infection. Additionally, the occlusive properties help to retain moisture within the wound, preventing desiccation and promoting a more effective healing process.

Comfort and Convenience: Designed with both patients and healthcare providers in mind, the Covidien Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip offers comfort and convenience. The fine mesh gauze is soft and flexible, enhancing patient comfort during wear. The ease of application and removal makes it a practical choice for both clinical and home settings. The dressing can be easily cut to size, allowing for customized application to suit individual patient needs.
