McKesson IV/Drain Split Dressing, 2 x 2 Inch, Six Ply

The McKesson IV/Drain Split Dressing is a 2 x 2 inch, six-ply gauze sponge designed with a pre-cut slit that makes it easy to position around tubes and insertion sites. It's ideal for clinicians, caregivers, and patients who need dependable coverage around drains, chest tubes, catheters, tracheotomies, and IV sites, delivering clean, secure protection where a standard sponge simply won't fit.

The signature center split lets you slide the dressing snugly around a tube or catheter without cutting or repositioning, so you get a tidy fit and reliable coverage at the site. Made from a polyester/rayon blend, this sponge offers ideal wicking properties and excellent absorption with virtually no linting, helping keep the area clean and comfortable while reducing the risk of stray fibers around a wound or insertion point.

These sterile split sponges come two to a pack and are available in multiple purchase options, including a Pack of 1, a Box of 35, and a Case of 700, so you can stock up to match your needs at home or in a clinical setting. Simply select your preferred option below to order the right quantity.
