FIWA comp gauze compresses – non-sterile

FIWA komp gauze compresses are non-sterile, 17-ply compresses made of gauze conforming to DIN EN 14079 and are 100% cotton. The folded edges ensure a stable shape and reduce the risk of fraying. They are suitable for general wound care, especially for heavily contaminated, infected, or exuding wounds. They can also be used as swabs or compresses during minor surgical procedures in outpatient and inpatient settings.

Applications and areas of use

These gauze compresses are intended for external use and can be used to clean wounds, absorb exudate, and as primary or secondary wound dressings. They are particularly helpful in the initial treatment of wounds in hospitals, medical practices, and outpatient facilities. The product must be sterilized using a validated procedure before contact with open wounds.

Instructions for use

Choose a suitable compress size depending on the size of the wound. Apply the compress loosely to the affected area without compressing it too tightly, unless pressure is desired. Secure the compress with a suitable bandage or adhesive tape if necessary. Be sure to change the compresses regularly, especially for heavily exuding wounds.

Warnings and storage

FIWA komp gauze compresses are for single use only and must not be reused. Do not use the product if the packaging is damaged or the expiration date has passed. Store the compresses in a dry place and protect them from direct sunlight. If you have any questions, please contact your doctor or pharmacist.
