McKesson Split Sponges, 4 x 4 Inch, 6-Ply Sterile

The McKesson Split Sponges are 4 x 4 inch, 6-ply sterile drain dressings designed for use around drains, chest tubes, catheters, tracheotomies, and IV sites. The pre-cut slit design allows clinicians and caregivers to position the sponge easily around tubing and lines without needing to cut the dressing, saving time during dressing changes while maintaining a sterile field.

Constructed from a polyester/rayon blend, these split drain sponges offer excellent absorption and wicking action to help manage drainage and keep the surrounding skin dry. The low-linting material reduces the risk of fibers adhering to wounds or catheter sites, supporting a cleaner healing environment for patients in hospitals, clinics, and home care settings.

Each sterile pack contains 2 sponges, making them convenient for routine dressing changes on drains, IV lines, and tracheostomy tubes. These 4 x 4 inch sterile split sponges are a practical, cost-effective choice for facilities and caregivers who need reliable, absorbent dressings for tube and catheter site care.

McKesson's split sponge dressings are trusted by healthcare professionals for their consistent quality, ease of application, and dependable performance in managing drainage around medical devices.
