Cardinal Health Curity IV / Drain Split Dressing, 2 x 2 Inch, Six-Ply

The Cardinal Health Curity IV / Drain Split Dressing is a six-ply gauze sponge designed to fit neatly around tubes, IVs, drains, and other medical devices. Its pre-cut T-slit in the center makes it ideal for caregivers, clinicians, and patients who need a clean, comfortable way to cover and secure catheter or tube insertion sites at home or in a clinical setting.

Each 2 x 2 inch split sponge features a T-cut down the middle so it slides easily around IVs, chest tubes, drains, tracheostomies, and catheters — no sterile scissors or cutting required. The absorbent six-ply construction helps wick away moisture and keep the surrounding skin dry, while the soft gauze offers comfort against tender insertion sites. Because it's ready to use straight from the package, it saves time and helps maintain a cleaner care routine.

These sponges are packed in sterile pairs and are single-use and disposable to help protect the wound and environment. They're available in multiple purchase options — from a Pack of 1 up to a Box of 35 or a bulk Case of 700 — so you can choose the right quantity for occasional use or ongoing care. This is an FSA/HSA eligible medical supply. Please select your preferred option below.
