Description

Throat Packing Gauze, Sterile, 2" x 18", is a specialized medical product designed for use in otolaryngological, oral, and maxillofacial surgical procedures. It serves as a barrier to prevent the aspiration of fluids or foreign materials into the trachea during procedures involving the oral or nasal cavity. The gauze is constructed from high-quality, medical-grade cotton, providing both softness and structural integrity necessary for sensitive surgical applications.

This packing gauze features a length and width optimized for controlled placement in the oropharynx and nasopharynx. Its woven structure ensures efficient absorption of fluids such as blood and saliva, maintaining a dry operative field. The material is highly absorbent yet retains tensile strength when saturated, reducing the risk of fraying or disintegration during use or removal.

The product is supplied sterile, eliminating contamination risks and supporting infection control protocols. It is individually packaged to maintain sterility until the point of use. The gauze does not contain latex, making it suitable for use in patients with latex sensitivity.
