Device product

XGAUZE Trauma Dressing, catalog number FIN-0002-01. XGAUZE is a 3" x 36" z-folded rayon/polyester dressing embedded with individual compressed cellulose sponges. Upon contact with blood or exudate, the sponges expand, thus increasing the dressing's capacity to absorb fluids. XGAUZE is packed in a pre-formed sterile barrier system (pouch sealed on three sides); one side is a PET/foil/PE film, and the other side is a PET/aluminum oxide/PE film. Packages are vacuum sealed and terminally sterilized via gamma radiation.
