Key Features

1. Occlusive Gauze Design:

The Xeroform Gauze Strip features an occlusive design that creates a protective barrier over the wound. This barrier prevents external contaminants, bacteria, and other potential irritants from coming into contact with the wound, reducing the risk of infection and promoting a clean healing environment.

2. Petrolatum-Coated Surface:

The gauze is coated with a layer of petrolatum, a key feature that helps to maintain a moist wound environment. The petrolatum coating prevents the gauze from adhering to the wound bed, allowing for painless removal and minimizing disruption to the newly formed tissue. This moist environment supports faster healing and reduces scarring.

3. Soft and Conformable:

The Xeroform Occlusive Gauze Strip is made from soft, conformable material that adapts to the contours of the wound area. This flexibility ensures a snug fit and secure application, accommodating various wound shapes and sizes while providing comfort for the patient.

4. Sterile and Single-Use:

The gauze strip is individually packaged in a sterile environment, ensuring that it remains free from contaminants until ready for use. Its single-use design prevents cross-contamination and maintains a high standard of hygiene and safety.

5. Versatile Applications:

The 5 inch by 9 inch size of the gauze strip makes it suitable for a wide range of wound types and sizes. It can be used for both acute and chronic wounds, including surgical incisions, minor burns, lacerations, and abrasions.

6. Easy to Apply and Remove:
