Elasto-Gel Sterile Wound Dressing Without Tape 4"x4" 5/Box DR8000
One (1) box - Five (5) Sterile Wound  dressings per box. Elasto-Gel is a unique patented bacteriostatic highly absorbent wound dressing that provides fast and comfortable dressing changes (due to its mildly adhesive properties). Elasto-Gel will not dry out or stick to the wound.  Bacteriostatic: Elasto-Gel has been shown to be bacteriostatic and to reduce the level of bacteria compared to other wound dressings. It has also shown inhibition of growth of five (5) major problem microbes, which are Pseudomonas A., MRSA, Staphylococcus a., E. coli, and Streptococcus p., in appropriate agar medium. In addition, J. Vandeputte and Hoekstra have shown that bacterial growth is essentially eliminated when dressings were changed on a regular basis.  Highly Absorbent: Independent laboratory studies have shown that Elasto-Gel absorbs 3.5 times more exudate at 24 hours than commonly recognized high absorbent dressings. Elasto-Gel may be used in place of hydrocolloids, hydrogels and membrane dressings. Elasto-Gel will not replace alginates when quick absorption is indicated. Elasto-Gel absorbs exudate, protects the wound, promotes a moist wound environment, will not macerate healthy skin, and never dries out.
