The lint-free construction minimizes the risk of particles entering the sterile field, promoting patient safety. The sterile, single-use design reduces the risk of cross-contamination, while the durable material withstands heavy use without tearing or fraying.

Compatibility and Applications
Dukal CT-01B OR Towels are compatible with standard surgical setups and instrument trays. They are commonly used in hospitals, surgical suites, outpatient clinics, and emergency rooms. Typical applications include absorbing fluids during procedures, wiping instruments, and maintaining aseptic conditions in the surgical area. Their versatility also makes them suitable for wound care and patient preparation tasks.
Usage Guidelines
Open the sterile package immediately before use to maintain sterility. Use the towel to absorb fluids or prepare the surgical site as required.
