Petrolatum Gauze, Sterile - 1 x 8" (Box of 50)
Description
Petrolatum Gauze is a sterile, non-adherent primary dressing designed to protect delicate wound sites while maintaining an optimal moist environment for autolytic healing. Impregnated with U.S.P. white petrolatum, this dressing prevents sticking and minimizes trauma during removal, supporting patient comfort and consistent wound care outcomes.
Made from high-quality U.S.P. cotton gauze, each strip conforms easily to anatomical contours, making it suitable for a wide range of clinical applications where gentle, non-occlusive coverage is required.
