Description

The Sponge, Neurology Rayon Sterile 1X3 is a specialized medical sponge designed for use in neurosurgical procedures. Constructed from high-quality rayon fibers, these sponges are engineered to prevent disintegration and linting, minimizing the risk of granulomas and ensuring that no foreign material is left behind during surgery.

These sponges are highly pliable when wet, allowing them to conform easily to the irregular contours of the brain and other delicate tissues. This flexibility makes them ideal for neurosurgical applications, where precise placement and adaptability are essential. The sponges can be used in various forms, including patties and strips, providing versatility in handling and positioning during surgery.

Each sponge is equipped with an x-ray detectable element on one side, allowing for easy identification and detection during post-surgical imaging. This feature ensures that no sponge is unintentionally left inside the patient’s body, further enhancing safety during procedures. A locator string is attached to the patties, improving visibility and ease of retrieval.

To aid in surgical accuracy and documentation, each pack of Sponge, Neurology Rayon Sterile 1X3 comes with a counting card. This card helps medical teams track and verify the number of sponges used during surgery, reducing the risk of retained surgical items.
