Description
The Steri-Drape Irrigation Pouch, measuring 19" x 23", is a versatile tool utilized in medical settings to facilitate efficient irrigation procedures while minimizing clean-up efforts and associated costs.
Constructed with a polyethylene film, this irrigation pouch forms a protective barrier against fluid strike-through, helping to maintain a sterile field and prevent leakage of fluids. The film's resistance to fluid strike-through ensures the integrity of the sterile environment, reducing the risk of contamination and enhancing patient safety.
Designed to contain fluids effectively, the 1016 pouch contributes to keeping patients and beds dry, thereby minimizing the exposure of healthcare personnel to potentially infectious blood and body fluids. This feature enhances infection control measures, promoting a safer healthcare environment.
The translucent matte-finished film of the pouch allows for visualization of fluids contained within while simultaneously reducing glare from the drape surface. This enhances visibility for healthcare professionals during procedures, ensuring accurate monitoring and efficient management of fluids.
Furthermore, the pouch has a filter screen that effectively captures bone chips, tissue specimens, sponges, and instruments. This feature facilitates specimen collection and prevents contamination of the surrounding environment, including the floor and instruments.
