Avant Gauze Drain Sponge Sterile 2's, 2" x 2", 6-Ply, EA/1, CS/700

Avant gauze drain sponge is a sterile 2 inch x 2 inch drain sponge made for use around drainage tubes. Buyers choosing wound care sponges for clinical settings may prefer this style because the extra fenestration helps the sponge lay flat instead of puckering around the tube. The 6-ply rayon/polyester construction is highly absorbent, low-linting, and fast wicking to wound beds.
