Gauze Femco paraffin-impregnated cotton gauze is a medical dressing of cotton mesh saturated with white paraffin, placed directly on a wound to create a smooth, non-adherent layer. Each piece measures 10 × 10 cm and is sold individually wrapped from the manufacturer's 50-pack box.
Key Features
- A non-adherent layer reduces sticking to the wound surface for less painful changes.
- Paraffin maintains wound-surface moisture during healing.
- Mesh fabric allows exudate through to the absorbent dressing above.
- The 10 × 10 cm piece can be cut with clean scissors to fit the wound.
- Individual packaging for the home first-aid kit.
How to Use
- Clean the wound and dry the surrounding skin according to a doctor's or nurse's instructions.
- Open the wrapper and place the gauze directly on the wound.
- Cover with dry gauze or an absorbent dressing and secure with adhesive tape or a bandage.
- Change as directed by a professional or when saturated with exudate.
Who Is It For?
For minor superficial burns, scratches, abrasions and wounds where dressing adhesion is a concern, at home or in a clinic.
Precautions
- Do not use if the wrapper is open or damaged. Single use only.
- Large or deep burns, or burns to the face or hands, require immediate medical assessment.
- Consult a doctor if increasing redness, swelling, pus or fever develops.
