Its versatility also makes it suitable for padding, cushioning, and protecting sensitive wound sites.
Usage Guidelines
Inspect the packaging before use and do not use if the sterile barrier is compromised. Apply directly to the wound or surgical site as required. Secure with tape, bandages, or wraps to maintain placement. Replace as directed by clinical protocols or when saturation occurs. Dispose of the sponge after use; it is intended for single use only and should not be reused or resterilized.

Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to standard gauze sponges, the Dukal 11130 offers a significantly larger size, greater absorbency, and more effective coverage. The 2 ply fluff design provides added cushioning and comfort, while still maintaining strength. Many smaller sponges require multiple layers to achieve the same coverage, making this product more efficient and convenient for clinicians.

This product is ideal for use by surgeons, operating room staff, emergency clinicians, and wound care specialists. It is most effective in large wound management, surgical procedures requiring heavy absorbency, and trauma care where quick and efficient fluid control is critical. It also serves as protective padding in orthopedic and postoperative applications.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. Open the sterile packaging only when ready for use. Apply using aseptic technique to reduce the risk of infection. Discard immediately after single use following facility infection control and disposal guidelines. Do not attempt to wash, reuse, or reprocess the sponge.
