CURAD Xeroform Petrolatum Gauze Dressing, 5 Sizes

Medline CURAD Xeroform Petrolatum Gauze Dressing

U.S.P. absorbent fine mesh petrolatum gauze for use as a primary occlusive layer to cover and protect wounds with light exudate where mild medication and/or deodorization is desired. Impregnated 3% Xeroform (Bismuth Tribromophenate) deodorizing agent in a petrolatum blend to help maintain moisture. Ideal for nondraining to lightly draining wounds, including lacerations, minor or partial thickness burns, abrasions, skin graft sites and suture wounds.

• Sterile fine mesh gauze impregnated with approximately 3 times its weight in ointment and Xeroform (a deodorizing agent).
• These occlusive wound dressings cling and conform, yet are permeable to allow minimal drainage to pass through to secondary dressing.
• Nonadherent design helps prevent secondary dressings from "sticking" to wound/periwound skin and helps prevent trauma from dressing changes.
• Contraindications: 
  • Xeroform Petrolatum Dressing is considered to be non-irritating and non-sensitizing. However, it should not be used on patients with hypersensitivity to bismuth.
  • This is an occlusive dressing and is not intended for use on excessively draining wounds.
  • Caution should be used where there is a history of atopy.
