Sterile gauze is a medical product used to cover and protect wounds and is widely used in hospitals and clinics. It is usually made of cotton or natural fiber material and its main function is to absorb the liquid on the skin surface or from the wound.

Production and use of sterile gauze

Gauze is generally considered a standard medical product with different sizes, shapes and thicknesses. It is almost always soft and meshy. There are many benefits of gauze, such as helping the wound heal faster and clean the wound. In order to maintain sterility, the gauze is typically enclosed in a container or pouch. Since people who use sterile gauze often have a high risk of infection, introducing other contaminants on gauze or bandages not only exacerbates the risk, but also creates new problems.

Liquid absorption

Absorbing liquid is the main use of sterile gauze. Although this substance gives a feeling of being thin and dry in the package, it can absorb blood like a sponge. This feature makes gauze the best choice for cuts, scratches and surgical trauma. Doctors and dentists often use it to absorb fluids during treatment. For example, the dentist will use gauze to absorb excess saliva and blood during tooth extraction, and the surgeon will use gauze to control bleeding when opening the body cavity to make the line of sight clearer.

Gauze also absorbs any blood or liquid that oozes from the wound. This can prevent damage to clothing or contamination of other objects. Blood is often considered a contaminant because it is a potential source of disease.

Wound protection

Most wounds require protection, and gauze can be used as a cushion to reduce the impact of contact with other objects. Gauze rolls are produced for this purpose. In particular, the sterile gauze pad forms a protective buffer for the wound.

Bandaging the wound also prevents the wound from drying out, which is why doctors recommend a wet bandage for a particular wound. Although some studies have shown that wet wound healing is better than dry wounds, dry gauze is still used. Some medical schools and elementary training courses still teach students the use of dry bandages as the best way to treat wounds.

Which bandage to use should be determined based on the patient's wound condition. It is important to choose the appropriate gauze. Some products have specifically added buffer layers, and some have enhanced adsorption capabilities.

If the wound is small, it is best to apply an antibiotic ointment after cleaning the wound and protect the wound with a gauze bandage. Many commercial bandages for small cuts or scratches consist of absorbent or non-dry tape that adheres to one side of the tape. On the other hand, large wounds require a wider range of cleansing and are wrapped in large gauze.
