How can SORB-IT Sponges benefit me?
There are many options to choose from when searching for gauze sponges. Common questions to ask yourself include: Is it antimicrobial? Does it contour around an IV or chest tube? How can they benefit my practice financially? One of the concerns with antimicrobial properties is that they are more expensive than regular sterile or non-sterile pads, and second, they can prove to be too sterile and thus harmful to the good cells that exist in an open wound. Kendall's Sorb-it I.V. gauze sponges are sterile and more cost-effective than antimicrobial products. The Kendall Sorb-it sponge wicks away moisture and conforms around the any medical tubing (like a tracheostomy tube) that has been inserted into your patient for more complete protection from the environment and wound fluid absorption.
