Gauze Roll 2`` (Unit)

A sterile compress is a pre-cut square of gauze (e.g., 4x4 inches) used to directly cover a wound. A medical gauze roll is a continuous strip used to hold the compress in place, wrap a limb, or adapt to irregularly shaped areas. The two are complementary: the sterile compress is first applied to the wound, then secured with the gauze roll.

Yes. The SuperMedic 2-inch medical gauze roll is individually packaged in a sterile, airtight wrapper. It maintains its sterility until the expiration date printed on the packaging, provided the packaging remains intact. Once opened, the gauze should be used immediately or discarded. Never place a partially used roll back into the packaging.

The 2-inch medical gauze roll is primarily used to secure a sterile compress on a wound, wrap an injured finger, hand, or wrist, and protect a minor burn or scrape. It can also be used to absorb exudates from a moderate wound and maintain a clean and protected healing environment between dressing changes.

The 2-inch (5 cm) format is ideal for fingers, hands, wrists, and delicate or narrow areas.
