Curity Nonimpregnated Wound Packing Strip, ¼ Inch x 5 Yard

Cardinal Health Curity Nonimpregnated Wound Packing Strip, ¼ Inch x 5 Yard

The Cardinal Health Curity Nonimpregnated Wound Packing Strip is a fine mesh gauze designed to fill and pack deep wounds, tunneling areas, and cavities that require careful management. Made from 100% cotton and left plain (nonimpregnated), it's a versatile choice for clinicians and caregivers who need a dependable packing material for a range of wound care protocols.

This narrow ¼ inch strip is ideal for wet-to-dry packing, a common technique used to help clean and debride wounds while supporting the healing process. The fine mesh weave allows the gauze to gently conform to the contours of a wound, filling dead space so the area can heal from the inside out. Because it comes in a continuous 5-yard length, you can cut and pack only what each wound requires, minimizing waste and giving you flexibility for wounds of different depths.

Each strip measures ¼ inch by 5 yards and is available as a Single unit or in a convenient Case of 12. The plain, nonimpregnated cotton design lets you apply your preferred saline or topical solution as directed by a healthcare professional. This product may be FSA/HSA eligible.
