Providing gentle yet effective care, the Gamgee Tissue Absorbent Gauze Roll wraps wounds in comforting softness while managing excess moisture.
Composed of a thick, highly absorbent layer of cotton wool encased in an absorbent gauze, this dressing is specially designed to relieve pressure points, offer warmth, and protect vulnerable skin. Ideal for highly exuding wounds such as leg ulcers, cavity wounds, surgical wounds, and burns, the cushioning helps improve patient comfort and aids healing. Its British Pharmacopoeia quality guarantees reliability, with the roll size measuring 45cm and weighing 500g.
While primarily a secondary dressing, it is also well suited to orthopaedic uses as undercast padding and excels in preventing pressure sores among the elderly. To use, apply to clean, dry wounds and secure appropriately; avoid use on infected or sensitive skin without professional advice.
