  • Overview

    An absorbent pad used in surgical procedures on the abdomen. Made up of 100% Gauze fabric sealed from all 4 sides, it carries a tail/tape at the end to make the handling easier. A common use for a laparotomy sponge is as a tool to absorb fluids around the surgical field so as to enable surgeons to clearly visualize the surgical site. It can also be used when it’s necessary to apply pressure, as they help distribute the pressure and stop bleeding.Several sizes are available in packages that may or may not be sterilized, allowing operating room technicians to select the most appropriate options for a given surgical case.
