Description

The Petrolatum Dressing with 3% Bismuth Tribromophenate (Xeroform) Gauze 5in x 9in is a sterile, occlusive wound dressing designed to support optimal healing in partial-thickness wounds, burns, and surgical sites. Constructed from fine mesh gauze, it is impregnated with a petrolatum blend containing 3% bismuth tribromophenate, providing a protective barrier that maintains a moist wound environment while preventing adherence to the wound surface.

The dressing conforms to all body contours, allowing effective coverage of irregular or curved surfaces without bunching or displacement. The non-adherent property allows safe removal without disturbing granulation tissue or causing patient discomfort. The rectangular strip shape, measuring 5 inches in width and 9 inches in length, provides versatility for various wound sizes.

Packaged sterile, the dressing maintains integrity until use and is suitable for single-patient application. The petrolatum and Xeroform combination is non-toxic and compatible with sensitive skin, reducing the risk of irritation while delivering effective wound protection. The dressing’s moderate flexibility and absorbency accommodate exudate management while maintaining a protective barrier against external contaminants.
